To avoid paying taxes, I'm going to ....

donate money to the Democrat party.
This is sure fire way to have YOU pay my share of taxes.

What the democrats are doing right now is exactly what communists do in other countries. Want a job? Join the communist party. Won't join? ... good luck to you.

The bigger you are, the more you give, the less you pay.

anything more than $8300 for single or $23000 (or so) that your employer pays as a benefit to you. E.G. Mrs THA and I have a major insurance company PPO, we pay about 3000 per year, my company pays 7300. Not sure if I would fall under the "family" part. My guess, since most Union members pay nothing in health insurance and the company picks up the entire tab, they would be much closer to the "tax" than most...

This thing is so full of loopholes, that if you are not part of a major dem contributor, you will more than likely get nabbed by some tax or fee.

i mean what does that plan offer that is so awesome? better lollipops when you see the doctor?

Sorry, but you are not big enough to not fail.

Typically, the more money you spend (at least with my employer's programs, the more options you have. On my PPO, I have my choice of doctor's, don't need to see a GP to get a referral to a specialist and have more choices on clinics. The down side is I pay 20% for my doctor "non-negotiated" charges in addition to the co-pay. HMO in-program visits may be limited to only paying the co-pay. I would bet that the mega union programs paid for by the companies may have a co-pay or they may not, so nothing out of pocket for the insured. Don't know about their access or requirements to stay "in-plan". Some may offer greater access to "elective" services like obesity treatment, cosmetic treatments and such...

I almost hope this idiotic disaster passes congress at this point. Its not even out of congress yet and is already destroying dims and making blue states turn red.

I can only imagine what it will do when it does become law.

Hope and Change baby!!!

[NormanPride]

I don't know about wanting the thing to pass, but I hope it wakes people up to the reality that this congress is horrible.

[OklahomaTuba]

Well if it works out half as well as porkulus has for us...
