In something that is sure to separate the efficient government conservatives and the stop-coddling-the-bureaucrats crowd, a number of recent studies show that government agencies can save money by providing on-site health care to government employees. In the generally conservative states of Alabama, Tennessee and Colorado, clinics have saved money. One of the most vocal supporters is Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer, a Democrat, citing the health savings.

This type of issues would seem to be an easy issue to build consensus --- government workers are provided a benefit that improves their lives --- while saving taxpayer money.
