I'm not completely following your numbers here, Keith, but what I see is that there will be an increase in payroll taxes, and an increase of taxes on the "wealthy," which would include most business owner-employers, that would be about 25% less than the average cost of insurance premiums currently. So this plan puts, on the average, about 25% of what most people now pay for insurance back in their pocket. I watched a couple of news reports, and read the Washington Post report, but didn't see anything about this plan having negotiated rates for medical care. I'd be in favor of that as well.
