I don't know what this was on yesterday--I just saw it oone of the c-span channels and I didn't know where else to post this---
A governor (don't know which state) was discussing health care---he said that he had talked to some of the manufacturing plant owners in his state and they said that because of the cost of providing health care insurance to their employees, they cannot compete on the International marketplace because the other countries don't supply the health benefits to their emplyoyees--
Therefore, the governor has come to the conclusion that we HAVE to have a socialized health care system so that businesses wouldn't be penalized anymore when competing for customers---
I just had to laugh---like the money they save would not go into the pockets of the owners and the customers would still have to pay the higher prices--besides they will be losing customers because if they start taxing Americans to pay for someone else's health care, then they will have less spendable income---am I right?
These socialists are gonna try to slip their programs in under any and every excuse in the books---
Just had to get that off of my chest since I heard it yesterday!!! Thank you very much
Was it form the National Governors Association meeting?
Yeah, I doubt businesses would pass on any money they save to their employees.
