It is not so much as health care as it is employee benifits. the more money you make, the more health insurence you can afford, but don't need as the employer gives better benifits, however to get the better jobs, you have to work for some government run thing. those of us who want less government seem to have our b477$ hanging in the wind. Lucky for me, I am a veren of the military and due to my low pay right now i get to have my cateracts and diabetes taken care of by the V.A.
