My friend was part of the layoff and said they are providing 2 weeks of benefits. So, no health insurance after 2 weeks. It’s barbaric that access to healthcare is tied to employers in this country.

Ownership class needs to extract as much value as they can out of their workers. They think that if you don't entangle healthcare with employment, then no one's going to work anymore. I think it is all projection; the wealthy already don't work nearly as hard as the people they exploit.
