Hmmm, I have heard about the under 80K and legal/not-legal rules. (I have also read that it would be paid for by a substantial increase on tobacco.) But I had no idea it was for 29 and under! I’m really hoping this is incorrect. Plenty of people have children of their own by the time they are 29 so we are covering entire families now, not just children under SCHIP? No wonder Bush vetoed this. I’m still not clear on whether it’s the “child” who has to make under 80K or the parent when we are talking about “children” who are really adults (over 18). I guess if you are under 30 and smoke you are partially paying for your health plan. It’s just one step closer to universal healthcare.
