How many companies give full health insurance to their employees? Not too many, I am sure.
Many companies have been eager for years to cut back their employees to under 40 hrs a week and not provide benefits. The term for that is underemployed. Started during the Bush years. The tax as they so love to call it (per instruction from Grover) is only for the dead beats that love to use the medical facilities and let us working stiffs pay the bill. So, what's the problem? The folks that lay about on welfare might have to pony up. I don't see why the right wing is getting up on their high horses about that.
