gW,

re: "The start of the Health Care Fiasco: was when government put wage controls in place circa WW2. To make employment more enticing, employers offered health care as a fringe benefit. Kaiser Shipyards in the Bay Area started Kaiser Permanente. Kaiser Permanente still exists; Kaiser shipyards are defunct. At the start Government decided not to tax this fringe benefit."

Thanks, that's the part I was trying to remember.

John
