MoJo: Rick Scott's Healthcare Plan - He pays 4/5 less than the Capitol janitors

More hypocracy from the financial responsibility party.

Last year, political neophyte Rick Scott spent $73 million of his own money to bring the tea party�s anti-government, pro-privatization agenda to the Florida governor�s office. Today, the former executive pays just $30 a month for health care�and lets taxpayers cover the rest�

Scott and his dependents pay one-fifth what a janitor in the state Capitol pays for health insurance� and less than 3 percent of what a retired state trooper pays for life-saving coverage.

Heres how he does it: http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2Ctnkj/motherjones.com/politics/2011/08/rick-scott-pays-360-year-state-health-insurance

1. yeah, well Florida wanted him.

anybody in Florida who voted for him, and now is complaining because he is doing what he said he would do, should be stripped of their right to vote forever.
