    Don’t like getting hoisted by your own petard, do you, erad?
     
    You are changing the subject big time to hide your own hypocracy.  You go along with all this rhetoric about moving money to the middle class, yada yada yada and then you tell us you plan to do everything that the loopholes will allow you to do to get out of it.  At least admit to yourself that increased taxation is NOT a good idea!  We all say that loudly!
     
    Accepting payments from Medicare is hardly comparable.  This is a long-existing program, and I don’t have to skirt the intent of the program or the law to collect.  There are practices out there that do better by [i]refusing[/i] Medicare patients altogether.  Accepting it is a service to my fellow old folks, making me a more caring individual than some. 
     
    Try again, erad.  That example falls flat on its face.  Your otherwise superb logic deteriorates when you get flustered.
     
    And I’ll repeat…if you don’t like paying extra taxes, and you have declared very, very loudly that you don’t, be very careful for whom you vote 12 days from now.
