why should the politicians have health insurance.when so many americans don;t and we pay for theirs.?

i;am a veteran and can't get health insurance because i was told my wife makes to much money.yet as a tax payer i and all of America pay for the outstanding health care for the politicians.if America can;t have health insurance why should the politicians have it paid for by the tax payers.look at all the money the taxpayers could save if the politicians gave up their health insurance paid for by the tax payers.

Thank you for your service to the country. You know how, as a taxpayer, you don't like paying for politicians' healthcare? Well, why should anyone want to pay for your healthcare, if you do not qualify under the guidelines? Income limits are there for a reason. They are not arbitrary. As for the politicians: It is their job, just like any government employee. Should we take away health benefits from all people who work in government, or just the politicians? Are all elected officials politicians? Should we take away healthcare from sheriffs, judges, mayors, and city council members, dog catchers--anyone who runs for office? I'm afraid you have given in to liberal logic: that if someone has something, that means someone else doesn't. This is a fallacy. You think there is this pie, and that if some people get big slices, than others get little ones. The economy is not static, like a pie. It is growing. Here's the secret: You can expand your slice of the pie. But first things first, you have to stop blaming others for what you do not have.
