Devoted to the Insurance industry and all thing related

I thought this was a powerful statement made by a privileged and wealthy person.  Ohio Governor Ted Strickland has decided to forgo the state health benefits package in light of so many Ohio residents that have no health insurance coverage according to Ohio.com.  Instead he’ll pay for his family’s coverage out of pocket by reimbursing the state.  

Apparently Strickland did the same thing before while he was in Congress in 1992.  He paid “for his own insurance coverage while representing a rural southeast Ohio district that included parts of Appalachia.”  

Strickland certainly is making all other elected officials look bad as “No other statewide officeholders or members of the state Legislature reimburse the state for the cost of their health insurance, according the Department of Administrative Services.”  

Any other Ohio or other state politicians ready to pay for their own health insurance coverage?
