An alternative view is that those people will no longer receive tax free benefits that the rest of us aren't getting.

I'm hoping they take things a step further and one day eliminate the health insurance deduction for corporations and count the cost as income for the employee. It's nonsense that a corporation can deduct it as an expense but an individual getting their own insurance can't. Sure you can set up a pass through entity but why should you have to?

I understand and agree with the sentiment, but not the conclusion. What happens when they can no longer deduct it, won't employees' health plans become even worse?
