Finally starting to sink in to some, before Obama, Before Bush, and even before Clinton, insurers were raising premiums while reducing coverage, employers were cutting or limiting coverage, and it was becoming harder and harder to gain coverage for many to get employer paid medical insurance.
Been going on for years (decades), mergers between insurers, and hospital closings have been going on for decades, nothing going to change there, larger employers and Unions provided benefits along with pay. but those larger employers and Union jobs are fewer and harder to come by, and no you can't blame it all on downsizing and/or free trade.
But one thing is for sure and it is now being recognized that with Trumps plan, the estimated 24,000,000 loosing health care won't just be the low income, retired, and elderly, but will also include an estimated 7,000,000 loosing health coverage from companies just plain not wanting to offer it any longer leaving it up to the individual to find his/or her own health coverage...
Trump is sure suckering in the right! Trump planed budget, geezes christ what a joke! But to those that believe in trickle-down economics... why not!
