basserdan .. Decouple healthcare from employment .. one bit ..

"The current incentives leading to job lock affect not just entrepreneurs, but a large sector of society. First, entrepreneurs are the drivers of medical innovations which can improve quality and even cut costs. Second, because small firms provide the majority of jobs in the U.S., their disadvantage in health premiums affects many Americans. The SBA estimates that while nearly all of the employers with 200 or more employees offered health benefits to their workers, only 62 percent of businesses with fewer than 200 employees offered such benefits in 2008. People who cannot get health insurance at work must pay their premiums out of after-tax income. In other words, it is also a matter of coverage."

do yourselves a favor .. yup, am saying it again .. lol, if Obamacare encourages employers to support progressive
encouragement to get them out of their "accident of history" responsibility it would be yet another huge plus. It
would add to all the other pluses of Obamacare which Democrats managed to get past the CRR obstructionist GOP.

Guarantee it would be good for the USA.
