health care woes aflict business

Spread the love

There seems to be many com­pa­nies that are real­ly in dire straights, if you lis­ten to them that is, about the new health care plans, man­dat­ed by the so called Oba­ma care health care plans, includ­ing now McDon­ald’s Corp, which employs over 1.4 mil­lion employ­ees.

Some large cor­po­ra­tions have sug­gest­ed that addi­tion­al lay­offs could be the result of this new health care plan if some­thing is not done to cor­rect what appears to them at least to be unre­al­is­tic expec­ta­tions, in regard to what ben­e­fits are offered to employ­ees.

This could result in even high­er unem­ploy­ment, fig­ures in a time when every job counts and infla­tion is slow­ing creep­ing into the mar­kets, this seems like a mal­odor­ous, com­paction.

It real­ly does appear that this thing is just wrong for Amer­i­ca or is it?

In the McDon­ald’s Corp instance they do not offer what most peo­ple would con­sid­er “real” health insur­ance in the first place, so one might effec­tive­ly argue that McDon­ald’s needs to step up the game plan some­what, per­haps even step up to the plate and offer some­thing besides a kids meal for their employ­ees.

Yet, most news com­pa­nies are not cov­er­ing this part of the sto­ry.

Why is it in this mod­ern day and age we have what amounts to a sweat shop for col­lege stu­dents, and they have no real health care options?

Shame on McDon­ald’s Corp for being the greedy prof­it mon­gers they appear to be, or is that accu­rate?

Per­haps it is fair to say that but unfair to tell them how to run their busi­ness.

On the oth­er side of the argu­ment, what hap­pens if your in that small per­cent­age of work­ers that get seri­ous­ly ill and you do not have “real” insur­ance what hap­pens to you then?

One thing remains clear, this new health care pro­gram may indeed result in bet­ter health care for a few peo­ple, here and there, but over­all there will be more Amer­i­cans out of work as a result of those few Amer­i­cans that do have health care.
