This whole healthcare + insurance thing (with SCHIP being talked about so much) makes me wonder.
I used to work for a small company that initially didn't offer health insurance either. We were about to have a baby and I brought it up, and it just so happened the #2 in the company was also expecting a baby so they implemented health insurance. But if this is an issue, can't you just find another job that DOES offer health insurance? It doesn't really deal with the issue, and I'm not that really against some sort of gov't sponsored insurance pool of companies, but aren't there other options for these small businesses?
I just don't think we always rely on the government to assist with our needs when we can collectively do it too. I certainly could be missing some reason why through the gov't it is better though.
