Here's health care that seems to work

I have read with much interest the attempts of several sources to have both the Congress and Senate join us in whatever kind of health care system they develop.

I applaud that effort. However, I do wonder why, when both senators and congressmen currently have their own health care "system" or coverage, they would want to join all of us lowly citizens?

I would propose that we all can save thousands of sheets of pages and hours of useless and frustrating political debate by simply having all of us partake in the same health care system that is currently enjoyed by our so-called leaders. If it is good enough for them, perhaps it is good enough for us.

What do you think, senators and congressmen? Can we join you? Certainly there would be no political debate on the system that is already in place and is being used by Democrats, Republicans and Independents. How about that for equality and equal access?
