In 1942 FDR re-instates the National War Labor Board which had the power to cap all wage increases. the rise of labor unions in the US during the 30's and 40's was putting upward pressure on wages which all started in 1915 with Henry Ford. US employers where allowed to circumvent this be offering fringe benefits in the way of health insurance.
what was the end effect of this? by 1950 half of all company's with 250 workers had health insurance and two thirds of those with greater than 250 had health insurance.
so historically what has the GOP done to fight for medical coverage for US workers...George W. Bush and the Medicare Part D plan, being the only contribution by the GOP in terms of providing health care to Americans in US history.
When Obama came out with his health plan, the pharmaceutical and health care companies were against it. After a series of back-room (i.e. no disclosure of what was agreed upon), and changes to the plan, they're backing it now. If they like it, it can't be good for us.
Health-Law Employer Mandate Delayed by Obama Admin. Until 2015
Businesses won?t be penalized next year if they fail to provide workers health insurance after the Obama administration decided to delay a key requirement under its signature 2010 health-care law.
The government will postpone enforcement of the so-called employer mandate until 2015, the administration said today. Under the provision, companies with 50 or more workers face a fine of as much as $3,000 per employee if they don?t offer affordable insurance.

lol this just keeps getting better and better. the individual mandate stays in place once again screwing the poor and middle class while giving big corporations a pass. Obama 2016!
funny how its implantation will now be after the mid-term elections. coincidence? I think not.
And it will miraculously be the fault of republicans no matter the fact not one voted for the law.
You forgot that it passed a republican majority house.
no it didn't . use your head. how can it pass a majority republican house when not one of them voted for it? democrats controlled the house, senate and the White House at that time obamacare was passed. remember, pelosi was speaker of the house when she said " you got to pass it to see whats in it". lol.
Fuck every entitlement program... If you want some thing earn it, the gov't should have no authority over the people and how we live. You may argue that i will not be forced on this program ect what ever. But these entitlement programs do effect my self and every other person in my generation or younger who is hard working. We pay x amount into social security with a bleak chance of even getting it. Where we are paying into things that may never affect us or we will never benefit from. We should can all entitlement programs use the money to increase more efficient transportation. Just buy lowering transportation costs could decrease the total living expenses of a house hold. IE goods will cost less due to transportation being more feasible. Use the money to increase funding in school systems, youth sports and rec activities. Fund non profites that support child hood cancer and ect. So when situations do arise where children have a horrible condition they can seek out the non profit for support, if there parents are not covered. No its not a perfect answer, but this should also inspire parents and generations to work hard, become education, and better them self.
My opinion if you have minimum education, minimum experience, minimum work ethic, then you get minimum wage and minimum benefits.

the only thing I see in America is that the rich become more wealthy and everyone else is fucked.
Private companies/industry run the U.S., not the government.
I try to avoid politics because everything just seems backwards and fucked up all around. If don't see things getting better any time soon no matter who is elected..
I do believe every American has the right to basic things: food, shelter, education no matter their economic standing..
The problem isn't so much Republican or Democrat.
The problem is people with money and power using their power to make money on the backs of middle class America.
And what everyone in this thread is saying about the middle class getting less and less, they are 100% correct.
For me one of the most frustrating things is that this cycle is ultimately self destructive to the country as people will have less buying power which means less demand for good and services.
Too bad that many people who are in control right now don't really care about what kind of mess they leave behind (or at least they don't care enough to do the right thing).
glad to see some people get it.
