the idea anyone can just move to California on a whim and somehow afford to live there is hilarious.
Oh? So I work a minimum wage job in Oregon without health insurance. Find out I will incur millions in medical expenses which is more than I can make in a lifetime. Why not move somewhere cheap like Eureka and have those bills taken care of?
The GDP of California is larger than many countries who have public healthcare
You really don’t understand the problem do you? Universal healtchare works because expensive illnesses are (relatively) randomly distributed amongst a population. But in your California case, that would no longer be the case. You’ve created an incredible incentive for the most expensive people to be a part of the system.
It’s really not difficult.
As you get older you’ll (hopefully!) learn that in cases like this, it’s way better to just admit you’re wrong. Believe it or not, people will respect that more than someone arguing increasingly sillier and sillier ideas. At this point, you’re just making the left sound like a bunch of stoned goofs who have very kind albeit completely nonsensical ideas.
Lol, is that an actual thought you have? You know all the countries with universal healthcare provide it to their citizens. It takes years but more importantly an application process where you have to disclose pre-existing medical conditions.
