Yet at the same time, burdening small businesses is not the solution. This is a task that the government should take upon to change the face of the nation so no one suffers. Thank you for sharing.

You pay for medicare, EI, etc.. these are 'self insurance' policies for the masses. If they let you'all opt out, well, it would truly be a world where Atlas Shrugged.. Better get that stick o' butter out and bend over, because if we had it your way we'd all be getting screwed when times got a little to rough in our own world. You have freedoms in your world because others, along with yourself, make it so. Aren't you willing to help them in their times of need as well?

Why should I be forced to pay for something I don't need right now? I'm in good health, and I don't really feel anyone else should have to help me with my forced health care either. This is atrocious, and un-American. Any congressman/senator that supports this should be assasinated for treason!

It all depends on what reform bill passes. Health care is LONG overdue for reform though, so the costs that may result are worth it IMO.

There will probably be some type of back door clause where they will not have to offer group health insurance. Then most of the employees will sign up for the govt run plan should that legislation also pass. I think most small businesses will be exempt from these mandates.
