When Baucus' panel came up $320 billion short of paying for its proposed reforms, Kerry suggested taxing insurers that offer high-end plans - those worth more than $9,000 a year for individuals or $25,000 a year for families - in order to raise $145 billion. It was an idea that he and then New Jersey Senator Bill Bradley, among others...
