The problem is as soon as up post CEO compensation and point out that for every million dollars, thousands of people get no hospital treatment. Republicans say, "But this is capitalism". But they are wrong. These guys make nothing, the sell nothing. They just skim money off insurance policies from poor suckers who don't deserve to be treated this way. Then Republicans say, "But it's legal". It's only legal because congress declared it legal. Is it "ethical". Ok, ok, whenever you say, "ethical", Republicans eyes glaze over and they start to yawn. Democrats need to fight this. It's a shame that this is what Republicans support. They truth is, they don't really, They just hate Obama and would see the US brought to it's knees if they thought it would hurt Obama.
Come on Republicans. Tell me how compensation like this is good. And remember, this is only the CEO's. What about all the other executives. Tell us how this is ethical. Come on. We're waiting. Tell us this is what is good for American. Well?
