Not Unions' fault. I don't understand the animosity towards Unions specifically to this revisionist history of Health Care. > The Birth of Employer-Provided Health Insurance During World War II, the federal government was wary of post-war inflation. The administration saw the terrible devastation hyperinflation wreaked on post-World War I Germany and they were determined to hold it at bay through wage and price controls which they instituted during the war. In reaction to the wage controls, many labor groups planned to go on strike en masse. In order to avert the strike, in a concession to the labor groups, the War Labor Board exempted employer-paid health benefits from wage controls and income tax. https://www.zanebenefits.com/blog/part-1-the-history-of-u.s.-employer-provided-health-insurance-post-world-war-ii https://www.zanebenefits.com/blog/part-1-the-history-of-u.s.... > Company provided health care became a standard thing from union demands years ago. I have heard that for years and I can't see anything that wasn't really the Federal Government's plan to stop all wage increases. Yes the Unions got mad and were going to strike but that was because the federal government was going to freeze all wages. Hardly a Union fault.
