    But how am I supposed to keep my employees if they aren’t reliant on me for access to healthcare? What am I supposed to do, pay them more? Treat them like human beings?!

      I literally work with at least 3 people that are ONLY working at my job for the healthcare… One dude is 68 and gets covered in aluminum dust all day just for the fucking healthcare.

      You’re goddamn right people would not be working those absolute shit jobs if it weren’t for healthcare being tied to work.

        68?

        Am I missing something? Shouldn’t he already be eligible for Medicare?

          More than likely. I’m just going by what he told me when I asked why he wasn’t retired or planning on it. He was given a hefty inheritance so it’s not like he needs to work.

            Sounds to me like the people who turn down extra pay because it will put them in a higher tax bracket and they think they’ll make less after taxes.

      Why don’t you read the article? The proposed system still has employer payments, but promises reduction of these payments which should give a good boost for businesses.
