Here I thought I was the only one thinking this. Thanks for sharing. If you find something advocating a nationwide sales tax for healthcare for all and offsetting this tax by requiring employers to convert their current contributions to employee healthcare into wages let me know!

First thing in this piece is going to Nationalized healthcare system, as it actually saves money and removes that huge burden from small and mid sized companies.

And I like that. I think my conversion of employer contributions to our wages is a win-win. They pay no more than currently and escape the typical increases each year they’ve experienced in costs while we see a sizable jump in our actual wages. Makes their financial forecasts more predictable too

It would actually reduce the contribution, mid-term, by removing the profit motive.
