Commie-fornia Democrats Hit a Wall on Single-Payer
2017-06-25
[Townhall] There is so much winning for taxpayers, concerned citizens, and conservatives in general in the state of California. The slow but steady victories in this blue bastion of progressive insanity should raise hope for all of us. After all, the Left loves to gloat that what happens in California is most likely to pop up all over the United States.

They might want to change their minds.

First, an assemblyman in Commie East Bay Alameda County attempted to allow Communists to serve openly in our government. The South Vietnamese Community in Orange County and veterans throughout the state hammered this liberal nut. His bill to "update archaic language in the state code" died after getting a bare majority in the Assembly. Besides, the legislature is full of communists anyway. They just need to be voted out.

#8  The bill wasn't going to go anywhere. It hadn't been fully developed. The initial funding proposal was a no-go, and the second one was DOA after the Democrats got the gasoline tax hike through. So it was a low-risk move with her voters, that gave her some street-cred with the CA Democrat establishment.

#7  Pappy's got the politics right. I know Toni Atkins. Worked with her when she was a City Council Aide on my current project (I was a Project Manager way back then). She's a l3sbian Democrat, but above this stupid shit - or at least I thought so.

#6  The bill was a sop to the Democrats' interest groups like the California Nursing Association and the SEIU.

As for the article itself, it really should have been on Page 4. We bitch when the media publishes opinion as news. Keep it in mind when stuff like this comes up.

#2  They ran out of other people's money to pay for it. ($400 Billion. And they already have a hole that size named "pension shortfall.)
