Z, > You're presenting arguments without much to back them up. I provide as much support for my opinions as you do with yours. > They're doing it for the same reasons Republicans pretend to be populist. Because saying that they're going to tax the rich gets them votes, while actually not doing it gets them donations. Seems backwards to me, especially given their constituencies. Oh wait, I forgot. The blue dogs are supposedly in the pockets of Big Insurance. Anyway, I'll tell you why I think the "Cadillac tax" is a sham in addition to the reasons you state: - There aren't really that many "Cadillac plans" to tax, so just taxing them won't amount to much. - Democrats are under tremendous pressure to make this bill look "revenue neutral." Hence they have to pass hidden taxes up the wazoo. Tenchusatsu
