So the employers would stop paying healthcare, and realize a 1.1 trillion savings each year.
The citizens would stop paying co-pays and deductibles, and realize a 400 billion savings a year.
The government would have to increase income taxes by 1.5 trillion to pay for this "cheaper" healthcare, and the citizens would realize a 1.1 trillion tax increase each year.
So the corporations and rich get to foist the costs to their employees.
Clever.

Hmmm this number seems familiar but I can't quite put my finger on it...
It's not religion, but it is a religious position...
Too bad it's only a theoretical position, and there are no examples of such a thing being implemented anywhere in the world...
Man, if only there was any way to tax people and corporations in some sort of progressive way...
Also, nice of you to imply they aren't already foisting the costs to their employees. Coz i'm sure they never use HC benefits in calculating what YOU cost them...

I couldn't answer "yes" or "no" to your assumption because I'm sure we'd disagree on the foundation of the claim. But the above search will help you see how much is being paid by employers on average, as well as who's paying 100% and what the ACA mandates.

So, single payer it is? Oh, and after 8 years on the job you have it for life... or was that some sort of pension, i forget...
That's a yes then!
Single-payer healthcare is a healthcare system financed by taxes that covers the costs of essential healthcare for all residents, with costs covered by a single public system (hence 'single-payer')
I'm going to go on a limb here and say "hundreds if not thousands". You think the native American kids didn't die during displacement, or the Japanese during WWII? All the best bits of your country's history have innocent kids dying in jail!
How come no one ever brings up what we did to the Philippines?
Because nobody cares what you did to brown people far away, of course.
More seriously, errr, what *did* you do in the Philippines?
Besides propping up Marcos for decades?
The Philippines was a colony of the US for a bit. We treated them in the manner typical of colonial powers. Which is to say, horrifically.
That being said, DarkAudit specifically asked about children dying under ICE supervision so given that ICE as an agency is less than 20 years old, I don't think they did much to the natives or Filipinos.
Man, ICE is a lot older then i thought...
A lot. It was bad.

"Mr Sauer represented Illinois' 51st district, and was a member of the House Sexual Discrimination and Harassment Task Force. "
Of course.
Somewhat similar to how many horrifically oppressive dictatorships are on the UN Human Rights Commission. Both are like "WTF???"
I look forward to that passing, so my idiot coworker will get arrested for trafficking crossing the border for a Bills game. He's smart enough not to take his weed to a game right now, but dumb enough not to know NY legalizing it doesn't mean he can bring it into the US.
What? This is still New York State. I'm not even 100% sure the republican gubernatorial candidate knows that he's running.
On October 18th, you could always just drive up to Canada while you're waiting for this to happen, which could be a while.
