Nowadays, thanks to the Republican credo of greed, corporations have
negated the social compact that once existed so they can put more money in
the pockets of everyone except the employees.

By "corporations", I assume you mean large corporations that conduct
interstate commerce and have subsidiaries in multiple states. Because those
are not the corporations who are not providing health insurance for their
workers. It's small "S Corps", LLC's and LLP's who aren't providing
insurance...because it's unaffordable.


We don't have the same buying power as large corporations because 43
Democratic Senators have found a way to obstruct a vote on giving small
businesses the same opportunity to buy health insurance across state lines
through national associations.
