Rick Scott not willing to share his sweet health insurance deal

Gov. Rick Scott, skinflint It's good to be king governor in Florida. Check out the very good deal Gov. Rick Scott is getting from the taxpayers in his state.

Scott is paying less than $400 a year for family coverage. That's the same amount that 107 out of 120 members in the Florida House are paying.

Florida's 40 senators are also covered by the state but this month they started paying the same as rank-and-file state employees. Career service workers pay $50 a month for individual coverage and $180 a month for family coverage.

Well, isn't that nice for him. Scott, you may remember, has been playing fast and loose with Medicaid numbers in order to justify his opposition to expanding the program under Obamacare, denying as many 900,000 uninsured Floridians access to the program. He's joined in that opposition by House Speaker Will Weatherford, another Republican and presumably another beneficiary of heavily subsidized health insurance. State leaders are in the process now of deciding whether to expand Medicaid.
