Obama Backs Taxing "Cadillac" Health Insurance Plans

He is really anti-union when it comes to rushing the legislation out as fast as they possibly can.

In a meeting at the White House, Obama expressed his preference for the insurance tax contained in the Senate's health overhaul bill, but largely opposed by House Democrats and organized labor, Democratic aides said. The aides spoke on condition of anonymity because the meeting was private.

Although they need to call these "Mercedes" Health Insurance Plans because Cadillac which is part of GM is now owned by the government. I guess you can call the failed "government option" the "Cadillac plan" (although Gremlin plan is more apt.)
