Just one more example of how easy we humans become dependent on something then squeal like a stuck pig when that something is taken away.
Businesses never should have been in the business of providing anything but X number of dollars for Y hours of work or production or commission.
We all know why it started but that does not change the fact that a business is not your mother or father.
Just like the government tells us not to feed the bears because they become dependent on food which they do not have to forage for, we humans all succumb, to one degree or another, to what on the surface appears to be free handouts.
In fact, the free handouts will always be more expensive because market forces are not in play.
Market forces will always try to push the price down while subsidized anything allows prices to rise.
Want health care to cost less or at minimum not rise faster than inflation? Offer only catastrophic coverage. Everyone should pay something otherwise we will always be in this hyperinflation spiral with health care and the communists will continue to push for One Payer (government) rationed health care.
another govt retiree.....save it...
