You mean Big Insurance Big Pharma ? Because I think most businesses , big and small, would benefit from a universal medicare type solution. One less thing to worry about for them and presumably government funded/single payer/ yada yada. It seems to me the whole theory that government programs need to be "paid for" is out the window as the Fed has 6T on their balances sheets and Congress has instructed the Treasury to spend 1.5 or 2T on C19 relief by printing treasury securities(that the Fed can buy if needbe). So its not about how can we fund universal health care ( and also a more dignified Social security retirement system [leave that for another thread]) its about the will to freaking do it and stand up to Big Pharma, Big Medicine, and Big Insurance lobbies.
