Folks who work for a living should not have to rely on food stamps and the like to provide for his/her family but as long as the work force has to deal with low wages and no healthcare benefits the worse our economy will get.... The rich will continue to see more gold in their jewelry boxes but the economy will continue to suffer.
Man you STILL miss the point.

If you force a business to PAY upwards of 12,000 a year for health care. HOW the hell do you expect them to stay in business. If they can barely pay minimum wage, how do you EXPECT them to pay this ****...........HOW.

Businesses will FAIL and go out of business when this UN AMERICAN garbage is finalized and passed.

You need to take a simple class in economics..........and then you need to evaluate just WHO provides jobs in this country....when done with that evaluation, you might get it. Small businesses provide 80% of the jobs in this country. NOT the multi mega wal-marts of the world. The companies that provide those 80% of jobs are pretty healthy, but no where near health enough to take on an additional 12k a year.

Finally, I use the 12k number, because that is the estimated cost of the CHEAPEST Obamacare Bronze level product.
