Actually Kenny, as a small business owner the tax break and hopefully  
more affordable health plan for employees looks good to me.

I've spent quite a few years in medical schools doing engineering  
support for professors and when in the Army medic at Walter Reed  
67-69) and having had all kinds of insurance plans including Kaiser  
(when at UCSF Medical School) I know we needed significant changes so  
I urge folks to be patient and let's see how this shakes out).  Having  
been to ER depts I've been amazed at how many walk-in uninsured are  
clogging the system.  Typical wait time here in NH is 4-10 hours!   
Hope mandatory insurance will reduce that burden and cost shifting.

I could go on forever about the waste. Better take this offline if you  
want to chat more about it.

One last item: one of our clients was Abbott Labs - just one of their  
campus mfg buildings they bragged to me was a "million dollar a  
day" (shipped product) building.  $365M a year in pills that have  
10-50 mg of active ingredient!
