6. Members of Congress are insured by Wellmark Blue Cross/Blue Shield

just like every other federal employee and have to pay a premium for insurace coverage and deductibles (no one, not even the highest elected official gets free health care).

I agree than many are independently wealthy - but it's not because they are members of Congress. That does not make a person wealthy.
