I know what you are saying but I would say it´s obligation to pay social insurances like what I told you in my previous post. I know it´s not tax when I see the name of my health insurance in my wage slip because I gave their name and account number to my Employer to remove % from my wage to direct to their accounts. They named which companies/offices they transfer % from my wage slip to. That´s what I tried to explain you in my previous post.

Yes, we have. I can decide which health insurance, I want to. All what I do is look for pros and cons offers from different health insurance companies before agree to join one of them and then gave the name of my health insurance and their bank account number to my Employer. I can see the name of my health insurance on my wage slip. The employees/workers can change health insurance if they like to but they need to inform Employer with new health insurance and bank account number. I have been changed health insurance twice.

Right. If I want medical insurance I have to find it and pay for it myself.

Hillary plan is cheaper than you work to pay tax and then plus insurance for yourself.

But you work to pay tax for medicare for many years before you are able to get medicare. I think Hillary´s plan is better.
