And for the record, I've always offered benefits for my workers, and I have to pay workmans comp and all that which just went up for me --and every single one of them would rather have that money themselves. All of them know that without the heavy cost of their government monopolized 'benefits', they would make way more money and so would everyone. Most peple would opt out of the gov programs if they had a choice. A choice would be nice. A choice is what socialism and government DOES NOT offer.
How much would you pay a worker disabled on the job? Would you cover the cost of all his medical bills or only until it started to affect your bottom line?
Or would you be like the business owner who brought in one of his injured workers, most likely illegal and didn't speak any English, I diagnosed with a humerus fracture which required surgery? After I arranged the consult with ortho for surgery the guy vanished never to be seen again.
Another result of capitalism. Hire cheaper illegal immigrants then don't do shit for them when they get hurt on the job. Or worse, turn them in to immigration to have them deported rather than pay for an expensive surgery out of pocket?
