Your idea would be to force private businesses and individuals to pay for benefits? Don't think that would increase costs of products and hurt the economy even more to force companies to continue to absorb increased prices due to Gov't interference? Or create larger gaps in corporate business, by driving start ups and smaller businesses out of business?

Retail currently makes about a 4-6% pretax profit margin. If you added back healthcare costs to that, Medicaid costs would increase a bit as retailers close and Medicaid picks up the newly unemployed.
