Reader's view: Dayton’s health care fix will just increases taxes

According to Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton, the fix is in for reducing the cost of health care insurance. He plans to take money from Minnesota taxpayers and dole it out to individuals who have had their health care premiums rise nearly 70 percent and who do not qualify for President Barack Obama’s federal taxpayer funding (“Dayton offers 25 percent health insurance premium reduction,” Oct. 28).
How does this reduce the cost of health care insurance?
Our family health care coverage is under a group plan; our plan’s premium also increased. Instead of paying the increased cost, the group plan was changed to a different company, which had a lower increase in premium. Now we have to pay a larger deductible, help pay for prescription drugs and leave a trusted company.
Dayton has no plan for reducing my extra cost; instead, he wants me to pay more taxes. Maybe not this year, but the increase will come to all who pay taxes.
I do not have the answers for health care costs. What I do know is this: Every time the government gets involved in an issue, I get to pay more taxes so someone else can benefit. What happens when the taxpayers are taxed out of their lifestyle? Who will pay then?
