I agree except common sense on wages depending on size of company and profits. During the crash of 08 many companies keep wages frozen and even lowered them for new hires while expanding and giving anyone but the producers making the money for them bonuses or other perks. They took advantage under Obama as well as banks not lending the money. On the other hand small business were failing due to high taxes and regs even private doctors. Obama care created corporate managed care where they also dictate to them in care plus overwhelm them with clients.
If you get sick you go to ER because you won’t get a appt till too months out. In the meantime private doctors either worked for them or suffered new regs mostly via computer that cost them 100K plus. People were being forced into socialism without the benefit of free healthcare. You still had to pay for it like private but no longer run like private and decline in quality. The one saying a stitch in time save nine.
The rising prices resulted in providers bailing out. Then Trump no longer mandating which is good and stopping the subsidies going to them not most the people who had high deductibles caused more to drop clients leaving those who wanted it scrambling to get another insurance carrier.Either way some would of dropped or found themselves paying more and more anyways.
Still no scrutiny of pricing including medication. Tpp most likely would of made it worse but Trump stopped it.
Some states like Calif have set minimum wage increasing per year till 15 hr. Some cities may pay more like SF.
This will speed up companies like Uber to find ways to cut down on employees replacing them with computers. I hardly see this necessary with them but will go that way.
Tax cuts should help wages and are for a handful of companies so far but we’ll see.
