Healthcare

Republican Healthcare Fail

Ezra Klein observes the following about the Republican Kid Future healthcare proposal:

Like the McCain health reforms, it erases the employer tax exclusion. That means the health benefits your employer purchases for you will get taxed. And that means your employer is likelier to drop your coverage.

Smart! Taxing small businesses. Shouldn't there be crazy people in 1773 drag mailing tea bags to the congressional Republicans now?
