99. Of course, why wouldn't a corporate leader want to
spread his company's health care expenses across the entire population instead of his shareholders alone footing the bill.

Years ago Lee Iacocca tried to make the case for national health insurance and most taxpayer and union groups saw it for what it was, nothing more than an attempt to displace Chrysler's obligation to its employees (largely union) on to the shoulders of the general public. It was a blatant attempt to save his shareholders money.

Corporate welfare by another name.
