Threads like this really speak to the need to have a career in a field that provides good benefits.
I'm so used to the $100 - $150 that has come out of my check every 2 weeks over the past 22 years that I forget for those with a career or job not in an industry that provides benefits what a burden that becomes.

that's actually a lot of money for a factory worker who's making $20 an hour, and it's a lot higher because manufacturing costs are higher and their profit margins are lower, so it's actually 250+ when your paycheck is only 800, that's a lot more money

And if you worked for 40 years, do you find anything wrong with sitting at a computer on a Saturday afternoon????

$1,600/month for two is typical. The cited deductible is not, for a group plan.

Like I said for those with a job or career that doesnt give good benefits then its easy to see what a burden it is.

Heh, sitting at a computer has been my job for quite a while. But not on Saturdays.

so what's that have to do with the price of tea in China?
seriously some of the looming economic problems will turn out country into Syria if we continue to head in the same direction and that's worse than tough
