What tax increase would that be? Perry had to raise taxes (we don’t have income tax here and our sales tax didn’t go up) so that INSURANCE would pay for the vaccine? Sounds to me like if insurance pays....there would be NO NEED for increased taxes to...pay for....the vaccine.....

Ah, any mandate put on any business is NOT paid for by the business but paid for by the consumer. You think oil companies pay out of their pockets for gas taxes.

Those insurance companies had to absorb the cost of that mandate, and the only way that is possible is to pass that cost out to their customers. That is another 'crony' in 'capitalism' because the literal tax/mandate becomes hidden as cost of doing business.

Look how many taxes a telephone company collects, all mandated by government.
