The Welfare State Expands Access to Health Insurance – Not

We received a notice today from The National Center for Public Policy Research’s health insurance carrier, an HMO, to remind us that our January invoice will be two percent higher thanks to a new District of Columbia tax on employers paying the premiums for their employees’ HMO memberships, as well as anyone paying out-of-pocket for an HMO membership.

Way to expand health care coverage, DC!
