Network TV is awfully quiet about UPS dropping insurance coverage because of Obamacare.....

Maybe I have missed it, but scanning the Obama worshipping media today, I've seen SCARCE coverage of 15,000 people losing health insurance because of the Clown's Death Panels.

Anyone notice this? There was a time, say, when REPUBLICANS were in the White House, that "news" organizations would do LOTS of coverage over these moves.

UPS will not be the only corporation based in Atlanta to do this. Expect others to follow suit as well (Coca Cola, Delta Airlines, etc.).

the spouses aren’t losing coverage, those that are employed are being shifted onto their employers’ coverage

it’s a shell game!

This one is kind of overblown, my company, also a trucking company did this a while back. Basically we were told that if our spouses could get coverage through their job they had to do so or be dropped from our coverage. This kind of makes sense as our company would get dinged for more coverage for offering a better plan.

This was in response to the Obama recession long before Obomney Care. It was also one of the reasons we only took a 5% pay cut (YRC took a 15%) and returned to the black before other trucking companies.
