I understand my taxes will go up, but if I can stop paying the insurance premium won’t I have about the same amount of money in my pocket? What difference does it make if I send the money to Blue Cross or Medicare?
Won’t it be good for business, especially small business? If they don’t have to provide health insurance for their employees (and pay for a chunk of it too) in order to attract good talent won’t they be able to focus on their business?
They say GM has to add $1,500 to the price of every car it builds in the US to cover health care costs of it’s employees. But the cars they build in Canada don’t have that extra overhead.
All the people without insurance and can’t pay use the Emergency room which is the most expensive care there is. That everyone has to pay anyway. If we had universal coverage, they could go to a regular doctor for a fraction of the cost of the ER. Won’t that save everyone money?
