If one of your employees gets hurt at your business, it’s better for you to stand on their neck until they stop breathing than to call for help, because it’s so much easier and cheaper to settle a death claim then an injury

That is because of regulations that pass the buck. If the US had public health care, and fines for negligence and OSHA violations, this wouldn’t be true. Public health care would be the best thing for small businesses because it removes the health insurance benefits and workers’ compensation issues completely. One big problem with the GOP is they are half right a lot, regulations are problematic, but not in the way they think. They take this half rightness and use it to do the wrong thing.
