Arnold Schwarzenegger's promised "year of healthcare reform" enters its final fortnight with still no result, any hope for an eleventh-hour agreement appears to hinge on whether he is willing to carve out exceptions to his goal of obtaining coverage for 100 percent of Californians.
Negotiations among Schwarzenegger, Democratic Assembly Speaker Fabian Nuñez and healthcare interest groups have been stubbornly deadlocked since the governor called a special legislative session in early September to attempt to salvage his hoped-for reforms.
Neither side can find a balance between affordability assurances for individuals and subsidy levels for the state that meets its bottom line. "If you have 20 people on a desert island and you have a raft that only holds 10," he said, "you don't put all 20 people on board, because it sinks the raft."
