Walmart for example happly celebrates that its employee benefits are 100% employee paid! They will automatically take the amount off your check. There is no cost to them but they get to claim there are jobs get health benefits.
Where I live Bell got a government grant to put fiber to the houses in the area this summer. I was dreading the fact that there would have been fiber to my house but I would still refuse to be a bell customer again… I really hope I can get a connection through another company using the line. Currently on Netfox through Bell copper!
