Letter: Health benefits should be up to the company

A reader says the new law requiring agencies to ask contractors about the health benefits they offer their employees is a waste of resources.

Regarding “Law requires agencies to ask contractors about health benefits”: This is just another law to waste both government resources as well as contractors’.

So why does the government have to waste its time as well as the contractors’ to check this out?
