You would rather give your money to the insurance company, which, by the way, will fund abortions at a greater rate than this bill would.

So you support MORE abortions.

If I had the freedom to choose between giving my money to a insurance company or the IRS, I would choose the Insurance company everytime w/o a second thought.

Unlike the IRS, which has an unlimited source of revenue and a printing press, private insurance companies must spend their money more wisely and efficiently so as to balance their books.

Unlike the IRS, insurance companies cant seize your property or put you in jail on a whim.

How very special of you!

So I guess that means you now support the AIG bailout, eh? And all of the other bailout money given to those holding things like 'credit default swaps'.

After all, they were insurance companies.

No, I opposed the govt bailout of AIG or any private business and question why Obama continues to give private industry taxpayer money and not allow them to bankrupt.
Then Tax Breaks for Employers Funds Abortions Too
by ARMCX1
Wilson's outburst was about whether reforms would pay for the healthcare of illegals, not abortion. You raise an interesting point--if federal subsidies to individuals that purchase insurance plans that provide abortion coverage indirectly pay for abortions, then federal tax breaks to employers offering health insurance to their employees that pay for abortions would also indirectly fund abortions for the same reason. I'm surprised that this issue has only surfaced in the context of proposed healthcare reforms and never in the context of long standing tax breaks to employers for providing insurance. It makes me think that the issue is less about the Hyde amendment than an effort to defeat reform.

Federal tax breaks is merely allowing people to keep their own money in the first place.

But to a devout Marxist such as yourself it's heresy

Democrats have a super majority in congress, there are dozen or so democrat bills which get voted on before anything the minority party submits.
