Hey, how are things in California? Here is what the REPUBLICAN governor
proposed yesterday. Hold on - he's requiring health insurance "his administration argues that so many more people would have
insurance that medical providers would make more money." What???
He is now worried about the bottom line of health care providers???????
The governor also wants to ban insurers from
refusing to offer coverage to some individuals because of their prior medical
conditions. Insurers would also have to spend at least 85% of their premium
revenues on patient care, a move that would limit the amount companies spend on
administrative costs and profits.
In an effort to cover all Californian
children, including ones in the state illegally, Schwarzenegger's plan would
expand the state's Healthy Families program, providing insurance to children
whose parents make less than three times the poverty level. That works out to
about $60,000 for a family of four.
And Schwarzenegger said his plan
would require every Californian to have health insurance.
"If you can't
afford it, the state will help you buy it," he said, "but you must be
insured."
...nah, nah, nah...if you can't take care of yourself we, the
all-great-and-powerfull-government, will have to do it for you and raise
everyone's taxes.
What happens to Republicans after they're elected? Do they receive
lobotomies or something when they arrive at their post? Maybe you need another
recall election to get rid of this governor like you did to the last one. Good
luck!
