"President Obama, in a pivot from some of his harshest campaign
rhetoric, told Democratic senators yesterday that he is willing to
consider taxing employer-sponsored health benefits to help pay for a
broad expansion of coverage."

Is this a tax aimed at those who don’t need or use government health
insurance? If you’re already getting benefits from your employer,
you’re opting out of ObamaCare, no?

Is this a case of forcing the private insurance by employeers to be
canceled and forcing employees into a national care system?

If that's the case where’s all the revenue from taxing health benefits
coming from?

I’m missing something. The way I read it, private plans will be taxed
to pay for national health care thus, in practice, forcing people to
move to the national system which is being paid for by taxes on
insurance benefits that no longer exist.
