The CiC was giving a speech in Chicago the American Medical Association today and at one point made a comment as quoted by CNN: "Seniors who are well-off should pay more for their prescriptions."
This struck me as odd because I thought the Prez thought all people should be treated equally. Why does it matter what someone makes?
The cost of Rx ***** should be the cost of Rx ***** no matter what the "qualifier." As soon as we start differentiating (dare I call it "profiling") based on any (Race, creed, gender, financial status) criteria it's BS.
I guess it's okay if it goes one way but not the other? :dunno:
And then my next question is, who determines that, and what is the criteria for someone who is "well off?"
