I have no employees. I had one about 15 years ago but computers made her obsolete. Oh, and about 12 years ago I was a partner with a guy and we shared an employee.
Neither one were provided benefits.
LOL. You might be able to get away with that for a single receptionist. You can’t get away with that if you’re employing professionals (e.g. engineers such as myself). Believe me, that example of Metz’ is conservative; try it for 20 engineers and technicians earning an average of $75k and you start getting pretty close to your profit margin.
In any event, it’s irrelevent. The issue is one of government control.
