"I think employer-sponsored heath care is going to be defunct...it's too expensive for employers to pay for this. It's a very big perk they pay for- as they've done with pension plans through the years, they've now put the burden on the employees. More and more, the burden of the health insurance costs are going on the employees"
"You need the premiums from healthy people to offset the sickly people, so if this doesn't stop over time you're going to have fewer and fewer healthy people buying insurance, and it's going to be even more outrageously expensive and more difficult for Americans to get insurance."
--JoAnn "Flash" Fleming on Flash Talks Cash
