The proposed tax increase McCain doesn’t want to talk about
Posted August 15th, 2008 at 4:05 pm

John McCain’s pandering on taxes has been one of the more embarrassing aspects of his campaign, as evidenced by his appearance at the Aspen Institute, when he admitted that he’d been pushed into a corner on Social Security and taxes, saying, “I have to be against tax increases, as you know.”

But for all the talk about McCain’s recklessness on tax policy, there’s a little secret that goes by largely unmentioned: the presumptive Republican nominee is actually proposing a tax hike on those who get employer-based healthcare coverage.
