If Congress wants to pass this health care legislation, then they need to forgo their “House doctor”s and medical care that is special to them. I don’t mean their insurance plans. I mean they need to get rid of the mini hospital that they have on Capitol Hill. And while we’re at it, the president doesn’t need a special doctor either. George Washington didn’t get anything special, and he was by far our greatest president. Our lawmakers are no more special than the rest of us. We don’t have royalty in this country. Why does our Congress think they should have medical care better than the rest of us? They should have to wait in line at doctors’ offices just like everybody else.

(I realize this is a little off topic, but RReich just makes me go on little tangents.)

Hear, hear. I say all elected officials, celebrities, professional athletes, news staff, and all college professors in soft sciences and humanities, need to be placed on this proposed health care system for a minimum of five years. Then we can discuss if it should be made applicable to the rest of the citizens of this country.
