Z, > You're presenting arguments without much to back them up.

I provide as much support for my opinions as you do with yours.


Not true. You present quite a few observations with no backing at all. Some would call them opinions.

>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.

You don't think there are many plans that are at least $8,500 for an individual?

>Democrats are under tremendous pressure to make this bill look "revenue neutral."

Which they shouldn't be.

>Hence they have to pass hidden taxes up the wazoo.

Didn't you just state that this tax isn't much of a tax?
