There's also the Catch-22 of reviewing the arts, which is especially true with book reviews. If you're "just a journalist" and you didn't like the book, either you're a frustrated novelist or you're not qualified because you've never written a novel. If you happen to be a novelist, then you are just jealous of the writer's success.

Agreed that the gov't should provide health care for everyone, but if you don't see the correlation between offering Benefits and attracting talented and loyal workers, then you are missing the point.
There has been a fundamental change in how employers see their employees as liabilities instead of assets. Gotta keep labor costs down, gotta keep labor costs down. How do we trim our budget? What's our biggest expense? Labor. Hey, if you want to do all the work yourself and bury yourself in a pile of cash in an early grave, by all means.
