does your employer pay more than 7500/yr (single) for your health ins.?
If so that is a unusually good health ins plan.

I have no idea as there was never a need to check on it until now that Bush has proposed his plan. But even if it were over 7500/yr, and an unusually good one, does that then make it a target for the IRS and our gov't to come and tax it? Any pot of gold will do? It's just so anti-conservative in philosophy. It's what the Dems do, tax anything in sight. In my state (IL) our Dem Governor (Blagojevich) has been ripping off our pension plans (state). He sees this big cache of money as the perfect pot to dip into to finance his free health insurance for all children of Illinois plan. Do you see a theme here? Similarities?
I think I pay more than $5000 a year for just my payments into the plan -- that doesn't include the money my employer pays, which I think is 3 times that. It is quite possible I'm getting $20,000 a year of medical insurance.
But I admit it's a pretty good insurance.
