Obamacare Is For the Peons… Congress to Keep Their Gold-Plated Health Care Plans
October 19, 2009 by Jim Hoft
Congress will keep their gold-plated insurance plans as they force the rest of the country into a rationed health care government plan.
While it’s not news that Congressional health insurance plans are posh, CBS News recently uncovered the details of plans – right as the details of the Baucus health care bill are being hashed out.
Their premiums are the same as those of insurance plans with half the benefits, and the plans last a lifetime; not until Medicare kicks in do ex-Members or loose their Congressional health benefits. Congress has repeatedly voted down any provision that would switch their insurance plans to the lower-grade public option if Obamacare goes through.
