I realize they are bought and paid for but

for gauds sake do you think they might pay a bit more for their health insurance?

The floriduh legislature refused to allow it's members to pay the same premium that the

general public employee pays keeping their monthly, got that MONTHLY, premium at $8.00 for

a single person and $30.00 for a family plan.


right now our monthly premium is about $225.00 per month for a family plan,5 years ago when we

had to go on COBRA we paid $865.00 a month to maintain the policy my wife has access to at work.

If she loses her job this month, and it's a good possiblility, I don't know where we'll come up for the

funds for it and continue to keep our lives. Trust me, our lives aren't all that but they are better than

being on the street.
