Do you believe the health care tax burden on businesses will cause more outsourcing?

What healthcare tax burden? Oh, you mean the one that gives tax credits and incentives to small businesses so that they can afford to provide health insurance for their employees? Or the one that cancels tax incentives to businesses that outsource jobs? Not sure how you reckon that those will lead to "outsourcing" by small businesses. FYI, small businesses don't outsource jobs to any significant extent. The businesses that have grown too big to give a damn about their employees are the ones that outsource to countries with cheaper labor than in the US. The losses of some of their existing tax incentives contained in the healthcare legislation set to become law in a day or two MIGHT influence a few of them to reconsider their outsourcing decisions and bring a few of those jobs back home. We can only hope.

This legislation will take its place in history beside the passage of Social Security and Medicare. It will end the days of being denied coverage because of a pre-existing condition. It will help seniors finally afford their lifesaving prescription drugs by closing the donut hole in Medicare. It will end the days of hardworking families and small businesses being priced out of the care they need in the name of insurance company profits. And it will reduce the deficit by more than a trillion dollars over the next two decades.

There are more than enough tax breaks and tax incentives for businesses to cover this. Stop dramatizing.
