oct 12, 1954 - Revision of IRS Code

Description:

Tax Exempt Health Insurance
Employer-provided health insurance made tax exempt so that $1 in insurance is more valuable than $1 in income

today's health care system relies on employers to provide coverage and encourages more health insurance and spending. this benefits the rich more because their tax rate is higher, therefore a large health insurance package is also a larger freebie
