Too early for policy debates I think.
He seems pragmatic enough. I think he will take the approach that “Your employer doesn’t pay for your car insurance or home insurance….why do they pay your health insurance?”
OH then the people who have employers pay share their health ins. will have a fit, hope that happens.
Well, I’m just trying to put myself in his shoes. Look; if you were watching the US Healthcare system from Mars…you would have told your martian overlord “Very strange…the jobs New Yorkers have pays for their health insurance but not the other types”. The overlord would have asked you, “Do they pay for certain types of foods?” “Do they pay for certain types of furniture?” “Do they pay for certain types of entertainment”. You’d answer “no”. “Then why do New Yorkers expect their jobs to pay for their health insurance?”
I’m sure as a business owner, President Elect Trump was probably perplexed by the system where he would have this multi-million dollar burden added to his bottom line because it was the “way things were done”.
I’m certainly not hoping this happens but I can see him sitting in the Oval Office saying “Why not”?
