My husband works in the medical field and our son works in congress as an aide, so I get to see this issue from both ends. Most medical people know the system is broken and now, via our son, we get to hear just what a mess it is on the congressional side. I have long thought that if the people who make our laws had to have the same medical insurance as the bulk of their constituants, the health care in the US would be better. My son said this has been thrown out there to the politicians as an option, but so far, only a handful are willing to turn down their "Cadillac" insurance... what a mess.

I suspect there would be much more sympathy for the problems faced by millions of uninsured Americans if the elected officials and their families suddenly stopped receiving the “Cadillac” insurance policy they provide for themselves, complements of the U.S. taxpayers.
