He[Kerry] indicated -- with a sneer -- that HSAs showed the Bush Administration only wanted to help "people with money." Senator Kerry said that, if elected, his policy would have the government provide health care to "people with no money."

In Senator Kerry's world, it appears, citizens who take responsibility for their own health care-and who put aside something to pay for it-are objects of his contempt. He evidently thinks that they deserve to pay Income tax, Social Security tax, and Medicare tax on every dime they save to meet the health care needs of their families. Better to spend those taxes giving health care to anyone who meets a single qualification-having "no money."

This is a breath-taking division of the entire nation into two groups of people: those with money and those without money. It is, of course, ridiculous.
