Single-payer health care coverage for California. Yes, you read that right.

This is the link to the bill in PDF format: SB 810 

         "This bill prohibits the existence of a health care service 
          plan contract or health insurance policy, except for the 
          CHS, that will be sold in the state that provided for the 
          same services as the system.  This will reduce the 
          California health plan and insurance industry to either 
          third-party administrators for the system or entities that 
          would provide coverage for benefits not covered by the 
          system.  It will be administered by the California 
          Healthcare Agency under the control of a Healthcare 
          Commissioner appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the 
          Senate."

So, you tell me - what could POSSIBLY go wrong with Socialized Health Care in California? A $20 billion plan in a state with no money?!
