Big Business pay Corporate tax! Which doesn't count in the measurement of what they spend for health care, but the extra taxes they pay do partially go to health care. Business still provide insurance for workers Probably not nearly as much if the government is the "single payer" for health care. My point is with all the so called taxes Canadians pay, it is still cheaper for most businesses to turn a profit. You take 1 estimate of 1 industry and turn that into "its still cheaper for most businesses to turn a profit". You don't support your conclusion. Even if that estimate is accurate it only deals with automobiles, and also there are many other factors besides health care costs that effect the cost of production of autos. Tim
