    Ok, sure. You keep paying $10 for that widget to keep company X in business. I'll buy it for $8 from this company over here.

    We'll see which company survives. My best guess is that most people would prefer the $8 price, but I may be wrong.

    before Obamacare, private insurance was rising at 15% per year, will that continue

    "Wal-Mart Memo Suggests Ways to Cut Employee Benefit Costs " 2005

    http://www.nytimes.com/2005/10/26/business/26walmart.ready.html?pagewanted=all

    "Wal-Mart executives said the memo was part of an effort to rein in benefit costs, which to Wall Street's dismay have soared by 15 percent a year on average since 2002. Like much of corporate America, Wal-Mart has been squeezed by soaring health costs. The proposed plan, if approved, would save the company more than $1 billion a year by 2011."

    "Ms. Chambers acknowledged that 46 percent of the children of Wal-Mart's 1.33 million United States employees were uninsured or on Medicaid."

    an interesting Article, Walmart claims Healthcare raising by 15% a year back in 2005 under complete republican control...

    Not much to elaborate on in my comment. Yours, however, could use a little back up and proof.
