Sorry, you don't seem to understand. We need an affordable option, just as big business has. I am wanting to provide my employees with health care. What you have failed to explain is why I should be subsidizing my competition's employee benefits, while I cannot tap into the same pool to PAY for my own employees. Do you work for government? Big business? Seems you are the one asking for me to help pay your benefits, yet are upset that I have my employees' insurance interests at heart. The fact is, you ARE getting subsidized care ON THE BACKS of small business and taxpayers. All I am asking is to have the same rates and protections I am subsidizing you to have. Is that clear? No one is talking about having someone else pay employee health insurance, OH, except big business and government workers. And that sounds ok to you?
