WILL CONGRESS TAX THEIR OWN INSURANCE?

Do you know the best litmus test as to determine whether or not Congress and the President have your best interests at heart when it comes to healthcare reform? The answer is simple…Congress intends to help pay for their proposed Healthcare Reform Bill by taxing private healthcare “Cadillac Plans” upwards of 40%. So if you have a healthcare plan that exceeds Government standards, you will be taxed on the “additional benefits” you are receiving now and those tax revenues will be redistributed into the Government plan.

We have already answered the question of irony because Congress refused to drop their existing coverage for the Government Plan in their bill they are proposing, but the moral question is will Congress and the President tax their own benefits? They have the best insurance money can buy, so will they tax their own “Cadillac Plan,” allow an exception in the tax code/healthcare plan for themselves, or increase their salaries to compensate for their taxed healthcare benefits?

If Congress and the President sign into law a Bill that exempts their benefit package from the tax code or adjust their salaries to compensate for the additional taxes they would be facing, this clearly illustrates that our Representatives are out of touch and need voted out of office when their term is up. This action is far beyond irony…it is malicious!

YES WE CAN…VOTE BETTER in 2010 and 2012
