We need to have better ways of allowing the private sector to engage Obamacare.

Let me-

just highlight something that's underlying this issue you just raised, which is a very important observation.

When Obamacare was created, it was called an exchange.

Why was it called an exchange?

The idea was that half the people on Obamacare would be federally subsidized.

People don't have means.

You want to sort of get them as they leave Medicaid and enter the workforce, give them some level of coverage.

But the other half of the people in these Obamacare ACAs, the Affordable Care Act created entities were supposed to be from the private sector.

You know, small businesses, mom and pop shops.

No, I go to a diner.

I've got six employees.

Give me discounted, accessible, affordable insurance and I'll buy them for my my employees because they're working hard.

I want to be a partner with them.

So it was supposed to be like that.

But if the federal government is throwing money at the problem and whatever it takes to buy more and more coverage with rules that don't make sense, as you point out, all of a sudden it's too expensive for that guy who runs a diner.

So he has to now

forego buying health insurance because he couldn't do that and pay his employees a living wage and afford to have his business.

And so we're actually hurting the people we're trying to help most with this.

So the things you've mentioned have already been discussed.
