Tax reform debate stirs along partisan lines
Steve Pfister of the National Retail Federation said retailers are extremely distressed by Greenspan's remarks and warned that a consumption tax would devastate the economy. Rep. John Linder praised Greenspan, arguing economists favor growth from a consumption tax, while others push a value added or flat tax. The White House panel will report by July 31 with Treasury study and possible next year legislation.

County health plan switch aims to save over half a million
The county expects more than 500000 in annual savings from a CEBCO plan but employees report lost benefits such as fertility coverage. They question if cheaper generic drugs offset higher costs and push for potential separation of the drug plan. CEBCO costs about 950000 monthly, higher than Anthem rates, with a three year contract and first year rates active.

Health officials warn Ohio stores about chicken feet
Health officials in Ohio seized boneless chicken feet at several stores as part of an effort to prevent a bird flu outbreak. They planned to visit about 200 Asian restaurants and markets in Cuyahoga County to explain health risks linked to illegally imported poultry products banned from Asia, with more inspections expected. The avian flu has caused deaths in Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia over the past year.
