Does this bill require small businesses to give their employees insurance? If so, we’re in a world of hurt.

Fox Business discussions have indicated that $250,000 GROSS payroll (Mom and Pop businesses) is the threshold at which employees MUST be covered at a benefit level dictated by the govt

of course, buying private insurance will be almost impossible because premiums will rise

a lot of the new federal mandates on insurers are NOT insurance against future events, but wealth transfer and welfare to cover what has already occurred- ie, that preexisting conditions MUST be covered.

ie, I the ininsured or under insured get breast cancer,
THEN go to an insurer and demand that insurer pay for my treatments, as the gubmint requires.

Or Mom gets alzheimers, THEN we buy “insurance” that MUST pay for her care.

Those with insurance- Imagine what our premiums are going to do. We really need to rename the “insurance” industry, because wordspeak is in play here.

Small businesses that cannot afford the private premiums - those employees MUST be signed up for the Govt plan
This is the takeover of middle class America
