critically assess the cost to taxpayers for health care benefits afforded to Senators and The House of Representatives.

Critically assess the financial cost and the type of health care coverage for Congressional leaders versus the financial cost and the type of health care coverage for a working individual. If taxpayers are paying the bill for Congressional leaders' health care coverage, why should Congress adopt a position that health insurance reform is too costly and unnecessary for working individuals? The situation currently is that Congress is an elite segment of our society when it involves health care coverage, and I do not believe this is the best we are able to do.
