Former President Donald Trump is losing older voters to Vice President Kamala Harris, a new poll shows.
A survey released by Emerson College on Thursday revealed that the majority of voters over 70 are supporting Harris, 51 percent, over Trump at 48 percent.
Those results show a major breakthrough for Harris, who has been able to surpass Trump’s lead with older voters. Just last month, with President Joe Biden still in the race, 50 percent of voters over 70 supported Trump, while 48 percent of the age group backed Biden.
The over 70 category includes both baby boomers, those born between 1946 and 1964, as well as the silent generation, anyone born between 1925 and 1945.
Don’t get complacent! Vote!
They only want to tax employee benefits above $12,000. The point of it seems to be to limit how much health insurance people get, so it limits their access to healthcare.
If all employer-provided health insurance was taxed (not just the amount above $12,000) it would be a good thing in the long run, because it would disentangle health insurance from employment.

Not unless there’s a viable alternative… If put into effect today it would just be the equivalent to a giant cut for 15 million people.
No… just the federal marketplace. Like it should be. Then move the shit to single payer and boom done. The federal government negotiates prices like all other civilized countries do

The federal marketplace is not an adequate replacement for all income levels, it’s barely adequate for people who qualify for subsidies.

A large part of our current problem is that our fed government isn’t negotiating prices like other countries.
As I said, we can only get rid of employer based benefits if there is an adequate replacement.
