And how can employers give their employees raises in lieu of health care benefits when they still have to shell out a percentage of payroll (for instance, 8% for the bigger companies) to the Feds.
Exactly. Good point. This will be a nightmare if passed. If doesn’t pass, the democrats will blame Republicans forever for preventing healthcare insurance for the people uncovered. That is still better than it passing but the Republicans get the blame for everything because so many people out there only listen to the nebulous comments made for sound-bites by the politicians. Thank God the cap and trade is on hold but I can hear it now about how the evil Republicans prevented our world from being cleaned up. I have conversations with democrats all the time who I know and I am astounded at how uninformed they are. Yet, they have these deeply held convictions they espouse all based on lies and misinformation. It’s so frustrating.
