So let us get this discussion back to something substantive.

Imagine this scenario in November 2010

[1] Prop 25 passes allowing 50% vote for passage of budget – but as it is alleged, it contains a backdoor for tax hikes disguised as fees.

and/or

[2] Dems pick up 3 seats in state assembly and 2 seat in state senate (This is easy because Abel Maldonado’s seat is open). This gives them 2/3 vote in house and senate to do whatever they want.

[3] People are screaming pass the budget, so it gets passed with increased taxes or fees depending on [1] or [2]

Who do you want your governor to be?

Here are facts.

[1]Whitman paid $23/hour to the housekeeper – not exactly “treating like garbage”
http://blogs.wsj.com/wealth/2010/09/29/meg-whitmans-cleaning-lady-is-23-an-hour-exploitive/?KEYWORDS=meg+whitman

[2]Whitman used an agency to hire Ms. Diaz Santillan in 2000, and that the agency provided a Social Security card, driver’s license number and a federal document signed by Ms. Diaz Santillan that she was a lawful permanent resident alien.

[3] The only real issue (if you care) is if Whitman received a letter from the Social Security Administration indicating the Social Security number Ms. Diaz Santillan provided didn’t match her name.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703431604575522301382686356.html?KEYWORDS=meg+whitman

For me, the whole issue is a sideshow. I would care less either way.

Not directly related to the question asked:

The more I think about our health “insurance” scam, the more I see us moving towards something that George W. Bush has already created – HSA accounts with high deductible insurance.

I see these plans becoming more and more common in the workplace already and I fear that with the new healthcare “reform” passed, the trend towards them is only going to accelerate.

America will not accept any other option – true free market, completely govt. operated plan, Swiss model, French model, British model, Anarchy, Jungle Law ….

Like it or not – the future of our healthcare is HSA+HDHP and some bargaining with your favorite doctor.

I am in the 5th stage of Anger-Denial-Bargaining-Depression-Acceptance cycle of this issue. Most of the country seems to be in stages 2 and 3.
