I know. The only fair thing is that everyone who is on a government insurance plan, of any type, be put in a "pot" and equalized. Including Senators, Representatives, and ALL Federal, State, Local/Cities/Towns, etc, Military, and any entity whose salariesand benefits are paid for by any of those Governments.

Then the rest of us who have to buy our own insurance should have a crack at buying/having the same type access and coverage.

Of course, this would mean some of the Government and related insurance plans would pay less than they currently do. <heheheh>

Equalization....isn't it a *itch?

Medicare and Medicaid show that this argument has been settled.

If, in fact, this argument has been settled and we're no longer trying to roll back the government programs, then there's no good excuse for the government failing to offer a health insurance program for those who are now excluded--those who don't qualify for any of the government programs and who don't have employer coverage. Which would be Kerry's plan.
