It makes more sense as a progressive proposal.

In other words, you consider it more about some progressive agenda rather than a legitmate proposal to extend health care coverage to lower income Americans while keeping down costs?
If the latter, what would constitute a more reasonable compromise?

Just curious.

No, I think if they do tax the value of an employer health plan it must be a progressive tax because a lot of folks work shit jobs just for the coverage.
