One would think that the "JCs" would jump at the chance to offload the expense

Expenses are one thing--which are 100% tax deductible for the pseudo-JCs. Why NOT do it? EASY.

The pseudo-JCs surrender their POWER OVER EMPLOYEES when healthcare is no longer an employer benefit *LIMITED TO EMPLOYEES*.

When healthcare is a national program, employees can tell the pseudo-JCs to take a flying F at a rolling donut--and there is NOTHING the pseudo-JC can do about it.

It also becomes FAR harder for the pseudo-JC to hire workers because workers can look at a lot more important factors than just pay and healthcare. Telework? Where would the job be located? Schools (if relevant)? And so on. Suddenly, the pseudo-JC has to spend a lot more to find and KEEP employees.
