Proposal to Cap Health Insurance Tax Deductions

President Bush's Federal Tax Commission yesterday unveiled their recommendations that include an $11,000 cap on employer-sponsored health insurnace tax incentives.

Currently, there is no limit on the amount of tax deduction a buisness can take on health-insurance for their employees. According to the OMB, that amounted to $112 billion in lost-revenue for the federal government in 2005 alone.
