How Much Should the Uninsured be Taxed on Behalf of the UAW? None, says Bill McGurn here.
It's the Benefits, Stupid. The difference between health and pension costs for auto workers in Detroit vs. U.S. auto workers working for Toyota, etc. is $29 per hour. [link]
I hope Bill McGurn’s article wasn’t very long. A one word answer should suffice. How much should anyone (insured or uninsured) be taxed to pay for the auto workers health benefits? Zero.
John, you failed to mention an important fact: If you put aside the benefits, the hourly wage for auto workers is about the same, regardless of the company they work for.
Habits post is interesting…. but… how many doctors are respectful?
Great job indeed.
