Why does the U.S. Chamber of Commerce hate small business?
Russ Klanke
Only the U.S. insists that health care finance should be funded by employers. This puts the U.S. at a competitive disadvantage. U.S. firms must include health care costs in their cost of goods sold. To avoid these costs, jobs must move overseas.
Simple business. Small firms that cannot afford to ship their jobs offshore are at a competitive disadvantage.
When one out of every three dollars spent on health care goes to administrative overhead, you have to question the wisdom of this scheme.

Russ, you are one of the few people that have finally figured out the real purpose of the Chamber of Commerce and it sure isn't to support small business people. They have sold out to big business and you are wise to point out the impact of their policies on the small business person. They are part of the problem, not the solution, for business in this country.
