California’s attempt seems dead, joining Illinois, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania. Seems like the fine print got them. If states can’t agree, good luck reforming on a federal level:
If Arnold’s plan does fail, it will join “universal” health-care dreams in Illinois, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and other states that were also unveiled to hosannas but flopped once the fine print and costs were exposed. Alas, the failure of these state reforms probably won’t diminish political agitation for similar attempts that Democrats or Mr. Romney might propose in Washington. But it should.
