We have a small but growing number of workers who are “underwater”—the cost of enrolling them in group health insurance exceeds the cost of their wages. Big Business has been slyly getting out of group health insurance by cost-shifting, outsourcing, off-shoring, and tactical bankruptcies.
We can thank the American Medical Association for turning America into a milch cow for the medico-insurance establishment. What looked like a really neat way of blocking national health care paid by progressive taxation isn’t looking like that anymore, is it?
