We need to address why the costs are so high rather than play a shell game as to where the money comes from to pay the bills. I live in NJ (pity me) and we are SLAMMED with taxes. Business and people are fleeing the state. To subsidize health insurance requires more taxation. What good is lower premiums if I lose my job and my house and cannot provide for my family?
Government has its greedy tentacles wrapped around the health care industry already. They are part of the problem. It’s like getting hit repeatedly on top of the head and the person hitting you offers help in the form of a helmet that will cushion the blows. For a fee, of course.
