Privatizing health care is the problem. I am middle class and if I didn't have health care through my employer and someone in my family of four were to get very sick or have an accident, the medical bills would ruin us. I think a doctor should be in charge of your care, not some insurance company who is only in the business to make a profit. Last I checked, I didn't live in the "United Corportations of America".

And they should have health insurance. If you have kids, you take insurance no matter what the cost, and you budget from there... NO EXCUSES!!!

The school costs $15K a year, but the family only pays $500 a year. 2) His sister Gemma attends another private school to help her with the brain injuries that occurred due to her accident. The school costs $23,000 a year, but the state pays the entire cost. 3) They bought their “lavish house” sixteen years ago for $55,000 at a time when the neighborhood was less than safe. 4) Last year, the Frosts made $45,000 combined.

Also heard that they paid less than 60 thou or so for their home. Might want to check on that before assuming otherwise. Have read that the the school only charges them $500 a year on tutition.

They can afford that but not a $1200 insurance premium - even if that were true? It's because they didn't have to...they had SCHIP available since they could hide their income in his company. How else could you afford $3300(or $4400) per month and a $550k plus house on "only" 45K per year? Make the company pay for it and have the government subsidize the family by making them look "low income" If you do the math, the Park School costs $1667 a month (divided by 12, Divided by 9 its $2200) PER CHILD.
