What I am asking is revenue-neutral to the employer, if they are telling the truth. ALl we need is a simple change to tax laws. And no, $300 a month would not cut it. It is more like a $1000 a month. That is what they claim it is costing them now.
- to lose on an expense
so, you want 1K to go out and buy cheaper insurance ?
and pocket the difference ?
good luck with that. your co-workers would consider that a raise.
Good point on moving into higher bracket, but it depends. As for the "raise", who said I am the only one who gets it? Employers will be out of insurance business for everybody. You see, for all the tough talk about evil insurance companies, this is the plan they hate most. They have to be on TV more than Flo to get my business. What do all the tough talking anti-insurance company people offer? Mandates. Insurance companies don't give a hoot about mandates because they just charge more for them.
