Translation: Our staffers will continue to receive the same excellent health care coverage at the cost of the taxpayers. So the premiums go up? So what.
They should be less worried about their staffers opinions of them than Americas as a whole.
Reminds me of cops giving cops an escort home instead of a DUI- a ‘professional courtesy’.
This is why we’ll never have a flat tax- everyone will get ‘their people’ an exemption,deduction waiver or exclusion. And people wonder why the ruling class (Congress) have around an 8% approval rating.
