NO but I see no reason that when I buy an American made car a large percentage of my payment should be going to pay for the healthcare of people that have been retired for years. Current employees okay but retirees, no way. If they feel generous have them pay for that out of their profits. If they want GM or Ford to pay for their healthcare then they should continue to work there.

US healthcare would cost a lot less if we weren't paying for illegal aliens the free traders love to use in their businesses.

As far as employer-provided, yes. Pay for your own damned health costs.

Next question.

There's no need. Market forces will cause it to implode.
