Every employee out there whose employer offers health insurance to them receives that health insurance without paying taxes on it. The employer gets a tax deduction for that. We are talking about the self-employed. The irony of this is that a person can be self-employed and have employees and be able to take a tax deduction for their employees' health insurance but they cannot take that tax deduction for their family's health insurance. What this would do is to make it fair so that those people who are out there taking risks, trying to develop new opportunities in the economy are treated the same as everyone else.
