If you assuming that everyone who has a job takes the healthcare benefit you are misinformed.
Take the insurance company out of the equation. What will happen has nothing to do with them. It is the affordability for the employer. That is the problem.

Alright, then if you currently pay 70% just stop coverage, put that money in everyone's check and have them go the the exchanges where they will have more choices. Those that don't opt for insurance now because it is too expensive can take that 70% contribution to pay the penalty. It wouldn't cost you anymore than if they came in during open enrollment and said they would like to participate in your group plan.
