So, what do you call it when health insurance companies pay for check ups?

If they didn't contract to pay for the checkups, I'd call it following their policies.

If the did contract to pay for the checkups, I'd call it fraud, which is hardly something unique to the US.

while hedge fund managers, trust fund babies and highly paid workers have been having a nice time.

Highly paid workers pay a higher percentage of their income in taxes.

Also if you greatly increase their tax burden, you don't just hurt them, you cause harm to the economy generally, which is most painful for those with lower and less secure income.

How much is too much?
