| > It's just not for entrepreneurs without coverage. That was the claim. If you want to argue that said claim is wrong.... > healthcare costs are non-trivial even for relatively healthy people Oh really? I've paid out of pocket for high-end healthcare plans while "old". Housing was a much bigger issue. More to the point, you're going to pay one way or another. And no, the US govt is not an efficent middle-man. Yes, they can cut a check cheaply, but the fraud admitted to by govt healthcare advoctes dwarfs the administration and profit of private companies. Since the likely numbers are higher.... No, you don't to point to other countries. We're stuck with the govt we've got. Fix existing govt healthcare programs (starting with IHS) and we'll talk. > 2) It's not just about chronic illnesses, all healthcare costs money Yes, but it doesn't get any cheaper funneling it the money through third parties. > 3) To grow a company you need to hire people. People need healthcare. And you're going to be paying for that, one way or another. |
