Traditionally good health care and good retirement plans were fringe
benefits that employers used to attract and retain a top notch labor
force.

or used to control the work force. loss of healthcare can keep
employees subservient and in line.


When did that become a "right" ? I find nothing in the
constitution. Our ancestors grew up and proliferated without these
"rights". How did they manage? Perhaps by being productive and
thrifty?

the constitution talks about 'unenumerated rights'. integrated
marriage wasnt a right either until the courst said it was.
