Honestly...


I do not understand why small business owners don't whole-heartedly support every universal health care plan out there. The savings to businesses would be tremendous and I feel like that gets lost in the discussion on our craptastic health care system because we're apes and everything just devolves into poop flinging.

But, imagine owning a small business with 20 people and no longer having to subsidize their health care. That extra savings could be spent giving those people the raises they deserve and in some cases require to live a decent life. Or, in the true American sense, reinvested into the company by giving the CEO a massive raise. You know, either or.
