Do you think the competitiveness of the health care market could ultimately drive down the cost for employers and employees? In a Washington Post article Large Employers say health plans will cost more then 14,00 for an employee in 2018 "Large employers say the cost of health-care plans will grow 5% next year, to an average cost of more then $14,000 per employee." Do you think that if we were to got to the single payer mandate that it would alleviate the cost fro individuals and help grow the business sector? In the article Single-Payer: Good For Business (Mintz) "Publicly financed but privately run healthcare for all-including free choice of physicians-would cost employers far less in taxes than their cost for insurance."
