People sell out cheap.

They do indeed. We're getting the nagging at my company, too. First year, it was "sign up and we'll take a little off your insurance premium each month. You don't have to do anything." Next year, you had to fill out the survey to get the deduction. Next year, you had to complete a biometric exam and the survey. This year, you had to do all that, plus agree to participate in whatever programs the "wellness program" deemed you needed based on your survey and exam. I'm sure the next step is tracking whether or not you're "improving" and adjusting your deduction based on that. Not me. I just refused to sign up at the start and keep refusing every year. All the time I'm shaking my head at the number of people who never saw that once they have your information the program would become more and more intrusive and demanding.

I just refused to sign up at the start and keep refusing every year. ...yep. There are enough sheeple who get screwed willingly to keep the rates reasonable. IMHO, my privacy is worth 20 bucks to me.
