Re: #4

The ACA support for community health centers is a national program, so this would not make California any more of a magnet state than it is currently. In fact, you might argue the contrary. If community health centers make access to health care equally easy for low income people in all states, then the rational choice would be to move to a state where other types of living costs are reasonable. I don’t think that would be California.

Let us join together and make California the best place for uneducated, unskilled, uninsured, unemployed people to be. We don’t need any selfish entrepreneurial types to greedily withhold their tax money! We have socially committed rock stars and movie people to make up the shortfall.

@2 -- Oh, come on -- it's clear that a sizable number of God-fearing, Christian members of America want nothing more than to help out their fellow human beings if they are sick, or in grave danger of death but could be healed by modern medical practices. After all, I believe it was Christ who said we should gladly "do unto others as we would them have do unto us", right?

If you’re concerned about how your tax dollars get spent, you should like this. Lots cheaper than providing non-emergency care in the ER. Also, if people go to a community health clinic instead of the ER, you won’t have to wait hours writhing in pain – or worse – if you have to make a trip to the ER for a true emergency.

Oh, goodie!

Free health care for the indigent.

My tax dollars at work, given away by the Kenyan.
