Will small business owners encourage their employees to use the state option? Employer based insurance often has such a small pool that the risk is not shared as broadly as when it is a state or federal employer pool. It is becoming impossible for small and medium sized employers to provide insurance at affordable rates? why is that? It would seem to make economic sense to share the risk over a larger and larger group? I am in no mans land because I buy insurance not part of a group. I would love to see children be eligible for that large group? Who can oppose this? Who is willing to run for re-election on the banner of " I oppose health care for all children"?

Who can oppose this? Who is willing to run for re-election on the banner of ” I oppose health care for all children”?
