Taxed for my healthcare AND illegal aliens AND unions - all of whom get better care that I do.
BTTT
I'd like to see info on that ... but IMO it doesn't make sense. If we have single payer there won't be any other [private] companies from which to buy coverage. They'll be out of business.
Oh, yeah. They’re exempt. The Dems inserted language that says the gov’t can’t “interfere with a union contract”.
And they don’t need insurance companies. They’re self-insured...now with our money!
Bump for the night owls
Somewhere in here the unions are exempted but it is not obvious.

Puting all 2.5 million people in the health ins biz out on the street is the intent. Along with a major reduction in US population...
Bumpity Bump
Why be upset?
We’re already subsidizing 50 yr old UAW retirees to get $3200/month and deluxe healthcare
This is just a small step past that.
Solidarity forever (Baraq + unions)
I reposted this in a new thread so the night Freepers will see it.
Please go over there and keep it up front.
Thanks

[I hope Jim Rob doesn’t kick me outta here!]
Federal employees get free healthcare for life after 5 years.
Reading some of the comments on that page from the Left, &^#!@*
I now need to take a shower, what nasty vile people they all are, The next revolution can’t get here soon enough,
Awesome, thanks for doing that.
THANKS, bfl
C’mon guys....let’s get this bumped back up.
Now that the unions are trying to shut us down, we MUST get this out.
I want SOMEBODY to ask the White House:
“These unions you’re sending out...won’t they be EXEMPT from the very health bill they’re demanding for everyone else?
Oh, and what’s this $10 Billion that seems to line up with Sweeney’s demands?!
Bookmark for arlen sphincter’s upcoming town hall.
Print out a copy of that section of the bill and take it with you. Highlight relevant sections. Give it to him.
He will try to say he can’t address provisions in the House bill. Don’t let him get away with it.
” At the linked article above, they discuss the letter John Sweeney sent to AFL-CIO members exhorting them to turn out at town hall meetings.
In the letter he also lays out the unions’ non-negotiable demands in the health bill. One of Sweeney’s demands is:
...that the legislation contain “relief for company/union funds providing pre-Medicare retiree coverage...
Freepers, this is blockbuster stuff.
WE will be forced to pay for union health benefits that WE DON’t GET!
Remember when the UAW whined about the “deep concessions” their retirees made so Obama could screw the GM bondholders? Well, here Obama is giving them back...plus a few billion.”

I bumped it, quite the story, huh. We end up paying these union stiffs to retire on the likes of thousands per month, a far cry better than the income I’ll be receiving.
