Small-biz divided on health-care reform
Some small-business owners, however, support a public plan. David Borris, owner of Hel’s Kitchen Catering in Northbrook, Ill., told the House Ways and Means Committee April 22 that small businesses “already have enough bad choices – high-deductible, low-benefit plans that are barely worth the paper they’re written on.”
“For businesses that don’t have good options now, offer the choice of a public health insurance plan,” he said. “This will give us greater bargaining power and encourage competition among insurers to make costs affordable.”
The most important thing is that congress pass no plan that prohibits the states from enacting their own plans.
