    John, you’ve given me an idea. Why not pay for health reform with a tax on congressional millionaires (and maybe also state and local politician millionaires)?

  2. Brian W. says:

    The number of Congressional millionaires doesn’t bother me. It’s the number who became millionaires while serving in Congress that bothers me.

    I also have a problem with that list of 5 Congressmen with a net worth of less than zero. If someone can’t manage their own finances, I can’t imagine why they should be allowed to manage the taxpayer’s finances.

  3. Bruce says:

    How many of the millionaires are also crooks?

    Proponents of universal coverage never explain how to address the primary care physician shortage. They seem to believe in the old baseball adage “build it and they will come.” However, simple math suggests waiting lines will either get longer or face time with a doctor shorter.

    Adding to the problem is the fact that public health advocates don’t seem to like convenient services, like retail health clinics, because everyone should seek care at their “medical home” where their doctor knows them by name.

    As they say, these people went to Washington to do good, and they ended up doing very, very well indeed.
