Greatday, If you worked at Walmart, would you be able to "cut" the same check for your health insurance?

Or they could go get a better job. I'm just saying, you know, they could work somewhere else.

Again, a Non sequitur - Walmart, nor any employer, is responsible to provide you with benefits nor all the income you need for your life / lifestyle.

We can then assume that your answer is, "NO." You would not be able to "cut" the same check to pay for the health insurance you have now if your income came from working at Walmart.

What is Non sequitur is your extrapolation of conclusions for others based on your conditions.

You may ass-u-me whatever you wish - it does not alter the FACT that NO employer is obligated to provide their employee with all the necessary income for the employees standard of living. Nor, is that employer responsible for, nor obligated to provide, health insurance.

The above paragraph is indisputable.
