San Francisco restaurants are now adding a "health charge" to the bill:

chicagotribune.com

I like this part of the article:

> The rationale for this one is to cover the employers' mandatory contribution to the City's "Healthy San Francisco" health-coverage system. The charge actually is levied on employers, but at least some restaurants are adding a few dollars or percentage points to each customer's bill to cover this charge.

I wonder how many people are fooled into believing there is a disconnect between employer costs and what is charged to the consumer.
