I just read an article from McKinsey Consulting (insultants) about how corporations are looking for new innovations (invented by McKinsey insultants) to reduce soaring benefits costs.
Imagine if they all just got behind Universal healthcare and didn't have to deal with it at all? Wins for everyone.
