A Universal plan should actually encourage entrepreneurship due to the fact that if someone decides to take that leap and venture on their own they will not have to worry about the cost of covering their family and/or their employees. This is just where you would have to take a close look at the plan. I suggest factcheck.org

Now, corporations with special interest groups, lobbyists, different story.
And this is exactly where I was going. It will require very close discretion and scrutiny. I wanted the point to be made that Dan and I aren't rich, but we fall under that category with our small business. I am for change, but not without close consideration to all aspects and I want to know where the line is to be drawn? Money the end all be all? or do we consider anything like what I presented in my brothers circumstances?

I don't care to look at the website for discussion purposes. I am discussing HERE for debate purposes. I am asking YOU what YOU think. YOU are voter, aren't you? We ALL make the decision and your personal opinion should count if the system works right. So ultimately, it matter how you feel all of this should be worked out. I am not asking for facts. I am asking for your opinion on the solution. Maybe it has been proposed, maybe not. So I don't feel the need to go to the site.
