Talk:Desert Center, California

message: The origin of prepay may be misleading.  The article says:  "Henry J. Kaiser.... His idea was to take a nickel a week out of each man's paycheck to prepay...." While KP.org in reference [5] says: "Enter Harold Hatch, an engineer-turned-insurance agent. Hatch suggested that the insurance companies pay Dr. Garfield a fixed amount per day, per covered worker, up front....Thus, “prepayment” was born."  JKorpi77 (talk) 10:06, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
