The Cadillac tax.

[mpholland]

Kind of reminds me of neutering your dog to keep from having grandkids. Just not quite the correct way to resolve the situation. High medical costs are the real problem here. A person should be able to afford healthcare without insurance. Between pharm. companies making billions in profits, hospitals charging 100's of dollars per minute for services, overpriced insurances (not just medical, but malpractice, litigation, etc.), and multi-million dollar lawsuits, this problem will likely never see a fit resolution. Sure, lets tax another benefit, why not? Can't get away with raising the rates on everything else that's already taxed, so lets keep creating new taxes instead of fixing the problems.
