Nobody’s being forced into the public option. It’s an option. Take it if you like or get something else.

Not true. There is an 8% additional payrol tax the employer has to pay if they do not cover 75% of all health care costs for their employer. For many companies, it will be less expensive to drop health coverage altogether and force their employees into the “public option”.

The Dems, ironically, are setting up a two tiered system of health care where all the poor and middle class will have no option but the public “option”.
