I wonder what all the screaming from the left is about when they are fear-mongering lobbyists (K Street), when more money from K Street goes to the donkeys than to the Republicans? But let's not try to cloud the issue with facts, it will only confuse people... This is compliments of K Street.

Ready? Let's say ObamaCare passes with the government option. Employers paying 12-13% on employees healthcare will be charged an 8% fine if they don't. Bottom line, stop providing employer healthcare saves the employer 4-5%. Now the kicker: These employees will now HAVE to buy their healthcare from the government, but with what money? The employers aren't going to give them raises, not in this economy for sure. Even if the employers gave their employees the 4-5% difference (and why not keep them on the plan if they were going to do that?), the employees would still have to pony up the 8% out of their ever shrinking pockets. Bottom line: Employees lose their employer paid healthcare, AND have to buy new healthcare from the government without any increase in their pay. Example (purely hypothetical, all WAGs): Your employer pays $600/month for your healthcare. Drops your insurance, and you have to buy from the government for $500/month. You lose the $600 benefit and pay out an additional $500. Net loss to you: $1,100.00/month. How's them apples?
