It isn't "good" for those of us who have employer-paid excellent health care plans worth more than the amount chosen,

But it's still a good plan for America. I think we should eliminate tax breaks altogether, and just lower the tax rates. But if we are going to use the tax code to "incentivize" stuff, let's use it to incentivize what we want, which is moderately priced health care plans for everybody. We can do that by NOT providing special incentives above a set amount, and using the savings to give the tax breaks to individuals who buy their own insurance.

We have reached the point however where an uncomfortable number of people at FR don't want to talk about issues, or think things through, but are just a bit bitter and frustrated and ready to jump whenever WND or whoever tells them to.

Rush laid a good one on this type of person today, sounding like he opposed the plan, waiting for all the audience to go nuts, and then explaining it. However, I don't know how he ended it up.

Do I understand you correctly? You want to pay taxes on your plan so someone who doesn't have health care right now can afford health care at your expense?

Wait a minute, Webb warned the pres before the war started it wouldn't work? How so?


Here we go... father served, back to me, my son. Sheesh, why would he let his son go to this 'failed war'? Why did he tour around saying he was wearing his son's combat boots when he was still in training during the runoff?

Nevermind.
