There is a something close to that in affect. Business' with over 10 employees can't have someone denied for pre-existing conditions, and that person get s the same rate.

The Medium, Small business, and self-employed will get bent over hard if the govt passes a law saying they must provide health care, or take more money from them to provide it on their behalf.

Yes, I'm a small business owner and its hard enough to survive in a market where the govt thinks it needs your money more then you do. They mandate another tax on us and more of us will close, then there will be a bigger drain, bigger tax, more closing, copy, paste, copy, paste.

Are eggs good for us to eat agian?
