You live in a society. All I'm hearing is I need to vote to raise taxes to bring you back down to reality.

yes? pretty sure state-sponsored healthcare is going to be much better, both for individual and population, than the current mess that US has.

You should not require unions just to get help with your health problems.

Having healthcare tied to employment is antithetical to the most basic principles of our economy: people should be able to freely and easily change jobs and/or pause employment--that is the "free" in free market.
