Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger Seeks Giant Tax Increase For Socialized Medicine

The L.A. Times reports on Comrade Schwarzenegger:
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger today proposed upending just about every portion of the healthcare industry in one of the country's most elaborate efforts at holding down medical costs and expanding insurance to those who don't have it.

Schwarzenegger's plan, which he publicly unveiled at noon, would require employers with 10 workers or more to buy insurance for their workers or pay a fee of 4% of their payroll into a program to help provide coverage for the uninsured.
Job killing the California way.Whatever happened to "liberty of contract" in this country?
