We have to break the link between employment and “health insurance”.
This artifact of WW2 price controls has caused many of the problems we have today.
Job mobility (vital in the terrible economy we have under Obama) is impaired by this link.
RE: We have to break the link between employment and “health insurance”.
That’s EXACTLY what the Republican plan aims to do...
FROM THE ARTICLE:
The EPFA provides the tax deduction to the individual, rather than, as in current law, through an employer. This means that all Americans would get the same tax deduction, regardless of whether or not they get their insurance through their employer. Additionally, health plans would stay with the individual. So, health insurance purchased through an employer would stay with an individual even if they left their job or moved to another state.
