Subject: Proposed tax on Health Care

Comment: Dear Sir:

It is very discouraging and disappointing to read about the possibility of a tax on Employer sponsored health care benefits.

As I am sure you are aware, we and most other employers are finding it increasingly difficult, and times almost impossible to continue supplying our employees the health coverage. Now, to have the real possibility of taxes being added to this growing burden, for both employers and employees, is by definition, absolute discouragement !!

I encourage you not to continue down this "road".
