100% agree. The headline and the article are utterly dishonest. How much are people currently paying in de facto mandatory payments (aka taxes) for health "insurance" ? How much will the total tax on people in various financial situations change? The article doesn't say, distracting with a myopic definition of taxes instead.
As a libertarian, false dichotomies between de jure and de facto government are really bothersome. There are certainly arguments to be debated about single payer. There are certainly arguments to be debated about this particular attempt at "single payer". There are certainly arguments to be debated about who may be shouldering more or less of the costs with this plan. None of them are discussed here.
