					<description><![CDATA[&lt;p&gt;This is one of the most superficial, ill-informed pieces I have read on this subject.  I seriously question the premise that employer-based insurance flattens employees’ paychecks.  On the contrary, it becomes a benefit an employer is likely to be required to provide in order to attract qualified employees, especially from an employer who provides insurance.  So, the availability of employer-based insurance becomes a given and salary becomes on key driver to attract employees.  I would take this post down, I don’t understand the point — in fact, it seems to be arguing a point of the proposed tax reform, namely to eliminate the deduction for employee-based health insurance.  How does that help the middle class (or anyone for that matter)?&lt;/p&gt;]]></description>
