His suggestion comes to fruition

To the editor:

Years ago I suggested that all employee perks should be taxed, including company financed health insurance.

Now that many companies are no longer providing health care but instead paying employees to buy their own, those payroll supplements will be taxed.

That includes federal and state income taxes plus Social Security.

Has anyone noticed?
