Dr. Ben Carson, director of Pediatric Surgery at Johns Hopkins University, recently criticized health care spending in front of President Obama during his keynote address at the Annual National Prayer Breakfast. Critics, however, came out swinging after his remarks, saying that Dr. Carson made the comments as he showboated for a special occasion.“There’s no question that [President Obama] has advocated, you know, basically a policy of ‘tax the rich,’” said Carson. “I have advocated a policy that comes from the Bible, which is a very fair policy of proportional taxation. If it was good enough for God, why wouldn’t it be good enough for us? The minute you deviate away from that, you begin to get into all kinds of biases.”
