You said, "The teacher earning $30000 a year deserves the same quality health care for herself and her family as the lawyer earning 300000 a year."<br> <br> Simple question: Why? Seriously....why is that? Because you say so or someone else says so? Really - tell me by what measure you come to this conclusion that they "deserve" it.<br> <br> Oh wait...my bad, you answered that with, "The teacher's contribution to society is just as high as the lawyer's."<br> <br> Ohhhhh....so they've made a contribution to society. And just what led you to draw this conclusion that just because someone teaches or designs an airplane or defends a plaintiff or whatever that they have earned the right to health insurance. I know that's not what you said, but it is what you implied. So who determines this contribution to society and to what levels one has contributed? <br> <br> And please cite me one legitimate example to defend this statement, "And no-one should be denied coverage because they don't earn enough".<br> <br> BTW - I've seen several commercials lately for companies that are offering health insurance for $6 a day with no pre-existing condition exclusions. Doing the math it would seem that the total per month is less than a typical cell phone text plan. By Joe...even a $30K per year teacher should be able to afford that. Well - that's assuming she actually believes in taking care of herself.
