I am not saying everyone should have healthcare. I don't mean to come off that outlandish. But provide something that is beificial (read not a CRAPPY HMO) but also affordable. If you're full time you desrve this. Plenty of other LARGE companies do this. Home Depot is the second largest retailer in the US, they have competative prices with thier competition (heck lower soemtimes). But you don;t hear stories like this about them...
