8. Jesus. What a POS.

Marshall has voted in favor of repealing the Affordable Care Act and against protections for Americans who have preexisting conditions. He supports a free market approach to health care and has advocated for fewer restrictions on physician-owned hospitals, an industry he and his family have been heavily invested in. Marshall helped lead the transition of a surgery center into a physician-owned hospital in Kansas. And in the three years before 2020, Marshall’s wife earned somewhere between $195,000-450,000 from real estate investments in physician-owned hospitals, according to a 2020 report in The Kansas City Star.

“Just like Jesus said, ‘The poor will always be with us,’” Marshall told STAT News in 2017. “There is a group of people that just don’t want health care and aren’t going to take care of themselves.”
