have to purchase it for themselves with government assistance. It would be a great boon to business if they did not have to spend so much on health insuirance and maybe even make them competetive with foreign companies that don't have to buy insurance for employees..As long as the government is going to assist in the purchase of insurance business may feel they are off the hook...It still would not deny anyone insurance, only switch who pays for it.. As a benefit though if business decides to quit providing employees with health insurance, they can offer raises to their employees in place of health insurance.....Eventually government will be the main provider, just as it is in almost every civilized nation..
