The Obama plan adds $3 billion to the California deficit by expanding Medicare without the Feds paying for it.
But for the 6.6 million Kaiser Permanente members, Obama wants to tax us directly for buying efficient, quality, non-profit, health care.
"An arcane provision in the Senate health bill calls for paying for expanded health benefits in part by taxing health insurers, like Kaiser Permanente, which covers about 6.6 million Californians, while exempting plans offered by large employers who pay their employees' claims."ns
This will lead to fewer people having non government health care,will raise taxes and harm the quality of health care.
"The proposed tax would be levied on "fully insured" plans - these are plans whose claims are paid by the insurers - but not on the plans whose claims are paid from employers' own bank accounts. In general, employers that have the means to bankroll their employees' claims tend to be large businesses.
So how does this affect California? The state could wind up paying a third more per capita in taxes than the average state - and the cost will probably be passed on to consumers in the form of higher health premiums, critics say."
Why does Obama hate honest citizens, especially Californians?
