3. I've always wondered why

large corporations aren't supportive of single payer. We own a small business that provides health insurance for our employees and I would LOVE to save that money every month. We provide the insurance because I don't want our staff to worry about getting sick or hurt and being bankrupt. If they aren't worried or stressed over something like that, it is better for them and in turn better for our business. We only employ 7 people...I can't imagine what health insurance costs companies with hundreds of employees. Seems it would make good business sense to get behind single payer.
