First, Bill, the Taxpayers ARE the "Company" that pay the employees--in this case, the employees are those working for all government agencies. The POTUS is the CEO, and the Congress, etc are other Officers....They are employees of our "Company"....We, that pay 96% of all Federal Taxes, being the Executive Board , so to speak, should be able to join in the "risk pool" and buy the various insurances offered to this large group. We should pay the same prices as those "employees" we employ. Think you misunderstood the "2 of us + 4 employees" comment I made...one of the "2 of us" is not an employee of the small company. I am not an employee, but a spouse. Spouses have access to, and can buy the insurance at the same price as the employee plan, but aren't employees in the small group insurance.
