The Taxation of Employee Health Care Benefits
Forbes; subscription may be required [Opinion] Mar. 17, 2009
Excerpt: I know of no serious observer who is happy with the state of health care in the U.S.--and for good reason. The current system is marked by a set of incoherent compromises that blend massive government subsidies with counterproductive regulations. Over time everyone loses. One long-standing feature of the current health care mess is the tax rule that allows an employer to deduct from his or her income the costs of his or her employee health benefit plan, without requiring employees to take the fair market value of these plans into income.
