In 2008, Republican presidential candidate John McCain offered a similar plan: He proposed ending the unlimited employer deduction and instead giving every family a $5,000 tax credit and every individual a $2,500 tax credit.

In 2007, President George W. Bush......The policy, which went nowhere, sought to “level the playing field for those who do not get health insurance through their job” by ending the unlimited tax break for employer-based insurance in favor of a $15,000 tax deduction for families and a $7,500 tax deduction for individuals to purchase health insurance.

This year, Mitt

’s health-care proposal gestures toward the same idea: His website says he will “end tax discrimination against the individual purchase of insurance.”

Do you really think they'll repeal all of Obamacare?

Remember, it's a Republican idea..
