Now it has come out that not only will Congress and their staff be able to receive subsidies that others in the same income bracket can't receive, but they have a list of other perks as well. Along with the subsidies, they will be able to enroll in person as opposed to having their information go through the website as others are required. Certainly can't have their social security numbers exposed to hackers. They'll have a dedicated phone line to the insurance provider for any questions or concerns they might encounter. To go along with these perks, they have a choice of high end gold plans that aren't available to the general public.
I had said in an earlier post, that by receiving the subsidies, they (being Congress and staff) were basically saying we'll enter the fire along with the rest of those forced onto the exchanges, but first we're going to slip ourselves into these fire retardant suits. I was all wrong in that statement. Instead, they just lit the home on fire, shoved others in, and are watching the bonfire from a safe distance.
