What do multi-milllionaries with free, employer-funded healthcare plans do to ensure they’ll be able to see a doctor? Why, they set up a health savings account, of course:
President Bush may enjoy the best healthcare in America, and for free, too. But that didn’t stop him this week from setting up a tax-deferred health savings account.
. . .
“He currently gets the best healthcare in the world, but when his term ends, he will return to the private sector,” said Deputy Press Secretary Trent Duffy, adding that Bush also opened the account to set an example.
“He felt that this was the best move for his current and future healthcare needs,” Duffy said.
That George Bush–he’s just a regular guy like the rest of us, isn’t he?
