The No. 1 concern of Wisconsin residents is Health Care
Posted at 14:43:2 on April 9, 2004
An interesting article (read the article here) in the Manitowoc Herald Times yesterday:
Speaking at the monthly meeting of "Business Connects with Government," sponsored by the Manitowoc/Two Rivers Chamber of Commerce, Feingold (D-Wis.) said the same message has rang clear in all 72 counties he has held listening sessions in this year.
"In 1994, business people were telling me, 'Keep government out of health care,'" Feingold said.
"But now they are saying, 'Do you have any idea of how much the cost of insurance is going up? We may not be able to cover our own employees any more, or possibly continue in business,'" Feingold said.
Feingold said health care costs are of great concern to him as they may stifle business expansion in Wisconsin or even thwart potential business start-ups.
