fromabove,
My husband is a doctor (he is Republican, I'm not). It have would have been nice if Bush had gotten this cap on frivolous lawsuits and caps on malpractice suits during his first four years. I'm not sure I'm willing to give him another four years to get it done.

My husband is a doctor, which makes him a private contractor. We have horrible insurance. It is catastrophic insurance. The deductible each year is $10,000. We pay $800 a month for that cr#p insurance.

We pay almost half our income to the federal government. So I do share your frustration in that we have to pay so much money for tax programs that pay for lots of Americans to sit on their a#sses. We also pay a self-employment tax in our state.

I don't want to get on a rant about taxes here. It just makes my blood boil. I don't know what the answer is to the health insurance issue. I guess I just wanted to vent about the inequity of the income tax in this country.

Sorry for veering off topic.
