My Blue Cross - Blue Shield insurance (high deductible with health care savings account) went up more than twenty percent, effective next month.
It goes up every year, but usually only about 10%.
“The State of Iowa will pay an additional $17 million to cover its employees medical insurance”...
How about phrasing it this way, “the taxpayers that don’t work for the government are now stuck paying an additional $17 million to cover government employee’s medical insurance.”
There, that’s better.
