If tax cuts make business more competitive, why wouldn't savings in health
care costs?

The Republicults always claim that tax cuts will lead to jobs - but no one ever calls them on this when they argue against health care savings

1. If health care were totally taken care of by the govt and not employers
This country would undergo an economic revolution as every entrepreneur would quit his corporate job and go invent something useful.

I believe this.

2. What savings? The President's plan looks like it will raise costs w/o meaningful cost controls...
Single payer would put US industry on an equal footing with our trading partners--the President's plan as to employers is to cement the status quo into place.
