We trade - give to the government 6 years of our life or as a parant we autorize our government to borrow our sons and daughters both with a risk of death to protect our domain.

That at the state level, opperating on a for profit basis, the state would provide health and workers compensation for each worker and family. The "premium" would be both a employee tax for basic with an elective upgrade premium. This would be a payroll deduction.
