Abstract:
|
This paper examines primary and secondary evidence in regard to the shift in business preferences to opposition towards Clinton's Health Security Act once actual legislative details were known. Particularly, the Business Roundtable, the Chamber of Commerce, and the National Association of Manufacturers all shifted toward opposition during the legislative stage of the health reform episode in late 1993 and early 1994 due to political and ideological factors. This challenges the conventional wisdom that business preferences are guided nearly solely by economic or 'bottom line' calculations. |
