A $125 dollar stipend, what an insult.

That is almost as insulting as Social Security paying out $250 dollars for a burial.

Sounds good to me!

My advice - get up at 3 AM to log-in, to avoid the rush on healthcare.gov

and will instead receive a $125 stipend to shop in Michigan’s health-care exchange

LOL.

Don't spend that all in one place.

Those of us knew this was the plan all along. Put the bankrupt cities retirees healthcare onto the feds through obamacare.

Unexpected — not

the point is that everyone with a retirement plan is potentially vulnerable to obamacare in the future... plus a $125 stipend for the inconvenience...

Why should Social Security pay anything for a funeral?

This is one of the things Ozippycare is all about. Having something to send former Union Workers of failed States and Municipalities into, to keep the Unions up and running. Next up, Chicago and Illinois. IMHO it is 1/2 a loaf for many of these Union Workers.

This is why Snyder wanted Medicare expansion so bad and nixed Pat Colbeck's free-market alternative by 1 vote in the Senate by a turn-coat Republican, he need something to put them. Must be too much of a Statist for a free-market alternative. I can't vote for him again because of this.

and the residents of DeToiloit will still vote for their DemoRats and blame others for their mess. Pure lunacy but so be it as they choose or refuse to see the truth. Oh well....
