They won't be paying - you will.
its a hell of alot more efficient for us as consumers to pay a few cents more per item so that these workers can get a health plan as part of their compensation - then to have them vote for Dems who will give them a national health care plan, run inefficiently by the government and funded with taxpayer money.
our party needs to wake up regarding what is happening with health care in the US - private employers are dumping their plans everywhere you turn. those workers will increasingly be receptive to a government run plan - and Hillary 2008 will only be too happy to give them one in exchange for their vote.
