>>>>>In case you're wondering, the girls and I do have health insurance, paid for out of my pocket. It costs about $400 a month, which is $400 more than I am making at the moment. I am happier paying it, even though we hardly use it, because this way I can sleep at night. For a while we had no coverage and I passed more than one 3 a.m. worrying what would happen if some catastrophic medical situation arose.

>>>However, I do not think that the cost should be born solely by employers. One of the great things about this country is the ability for anyone to start their own business and succeed at it. The cost of medical insurance for small businesses would be too prohibitive for small companies. I think it should be a shared expense: a percentage paid by employers and the remainder paid by individual taxes. The percentage paid by employers should also be stepped up or down based on net profit. The working would carry the unworking of course just as they do now but those in lower income brackets would be able to have affordable medical care.

I just asked the same question to Bill, and, after some difficulties :), we got understanding. What causes you troubles with my question? The ideal universal system: everyone can come to doctor/hospital and get the same level of treatment. No payment, no discrimination by any criteria. Is it something you would support?
