Re: Here's your answer

Supie,

As someone who is well versed in the law, as that is my field, I need to inform you that that not every issue of law is a constitutional issue…this certainly is not one and I don’t think Wal-Mart would attempt to argue that.

You said "Where in the Constitution does it say that employers must provide health insurance?"

No where does it say that...it also doesn't say anything about businesses providing equal opportunity but they are all bound to now by law. The constitution, in fact, doesn't refer to a lot of things that are now law. The constitution rights that we have are just the basic protections that are afforded all of us but there are many things that can and have been added...like health insurance.

I find it hard to believe that someone such as yourself who has discovered on his own the problems with the medical industry and found help here would have such faith in big business to provide for its employees. You seem very trusting of the ability of business to regulate itself when everyone, on this site in particular, should know better from seeing how medicine has regulated itself into the fraud that it has become. I think that universal health insurance for all people is a great idea even if it is at the cost of lower wages but it truly is meaningless right now because having access to doctors might even be harmful. Once the health industry is cleaned up then they should have to provide a living wage for full time work as well as health insurance. Why is your heart bleeding for Wal-Mart? I think they are doing fine.
