      That was in McCain's proposal. Didn't know it was in Obama's though.

        That worked out well for McCain. The idea is being floated (trial balloon) to rescind "Cafeteria Plans" and to tax the Employer share of health care premiums. If that happens, there will be certain companies that will shed that benefit or cut back on their share of the benefit by the amount of the tax load.
