On Beck, Cato's Tanner falsely claimed Clinton's health plan would force small businesses to pay into health fund

SUMMARY: On Glenn Beck, the Cato Institute's Michael Tanner falsely asserted that under Sen. Hillary Clinton's health care proposal, small business owners would have to provide health insurance to their employees, "or else pay an additional tax into a fund ... that the government will use to pay for that health insurance." In fact, Clinton's plan would provide tax credits to ensure that many small businesses offer health coverage to their employees.
