Increase taxes for those over 200,000.00 per year.

OK. So, if you took 50% (75% ?) of the INCOME (NOT - I notice, inherited or investment-type capital, but just "income") of EVERYBODY who earned over 200,000.00 last year, could you pay the (approximately 5000.00 per year for the 60,000,000 who (the liberals claim) do not have "health care"?

Let's see. 5000.00 x 60,000,000 = ....

See, you have to count the "employer-matching" cost of most plans, the co-pays, and the loss of the tax-exempt part of the health care for employees that is the FUNDEMENTAL reason company health care plans are available.

If the company could not deduct the health care from its taxes owned, it would not offer health insurance reasonably.

Is Jean Francois and his wife Teresa prepared to pay higher taxes to make universal health care available? If he thinks its such a great idea, let him front the money for it first.
