Admittedly, this topic is a bit off the beaten track for someone just starting out but I can’t resist throwing in my two cents worth. As a small business owner, I’m constantly talking with other small business owners and wondering how they make it work, first on just making the business a success and then how their business handles the issue of health care. The reality is to achieve the first (success), they can’t offer the second (health care). No real surprise but it then leads me to estimate the number of these types of businesses and how many people they employ that they can’t offer health insurance to. Of course, you can get the official numbers from the various media types using them as battering rams to propel their point of view but back on my level, I see faces, faces of people who can’t afford or don’t have a health care option.
