Uber drivers pay taxes on earnings as contractors too. This at least partially covers ACA subsidies (if not fully).
And we subsidize employer-provided healthcare also, hence its existence.
- InitialLastName 6y agoEmployer-provided healthcare is a byproduct of WWII-era price-fixing that gave employers no way to compete on wages (so they started competing on benefits, including healthcare).
- crazyjncsu 6y agoYes, but we still subsidize it by allowing those earnings to be tax-free.
