A local factory here in Beaver Dam just announced to their employees that their Ins premiums are going to double effective this week, this one lady I work with her husband works there and their ins went from 85 week family plane to 170 a week. This cuts into the employees bottom line now. This is ridiculas, this is also the same factory that employes illegal's, and lets them work under false ss# and names and pays no taxes.THis is unreal. Also sorry Prowler I missread you, if things keep going like it is we will need to put in place termination when we reach a certian age. ugh

i understand completely. if it were not for my wifes employer i would be in the same boat. before she landed the job she has right now my employer was transitioning into this exact kind of thing. although it was great insurance with great coverage as i said in my first post i would not be able to afford it now with the higher cost of living and due to the fact i have only had one small raise in the last 4 years, but i think god every day that me and my wife both enjoy our job and still have jobs and good healthcare plans< for now anyways..............

[I mean, if you are without insurance, no matter what the reason, you can't just let a kid sit there with a broken leg and not go to the hospital because you won't or can't work.]


i agree 100 %, a child should not have to suffer if there parents dont have any insurancs. its not there fault there parents dont have it for some reason , especialy if there not able to to work to afford coverage. children should be taken care of first in any situation, they are our future an some day we will depend on them to make important decisions possibly involing issues such as healthcare.
