Glad all the Moms had nice days.

I’m about to be a “victim” of Obamacare. My company sent out an email on Friday that our plan is a “Cadillac” plan and to avoid the 40% taxation, we have to change plans. We are switching 6/1, but no details on costs, except $1500 individual and $3000 family deductible.
Here’s what makes me mad - they didn’t have to switch until 2017/2018 to avoid the 40% tax per the law (I researched). This change is being made purely to save money and Obamacare is the excuse.
I know we’re trying to sell our company and streamlining costs is part of that, but don’t lie to us.

So far we have our same plan, but I don’t know if that will change or not. Right now, our deductible is 250.00, and a $30.00 co-pay. I don’t dare hope that it will stay that way. This whole obamacare thing stinks to high heaven. We can only hope that the next president is a republican, and one who is determined to get rid of - or at least greatly weaken - the obamacare scam.

Oh my...that’s awful. And such short notice too!

We fear we will face the same issues in the Fall when PaDad has to select plan for 2016. Not sure if we are considered “Cadillac” but, since PaDads heart attack 5 yrs ago, we have ALWAYS selected the “top” plan. Which has gone up every year during the 5 year period both payroll deduction wise and co-pay wise.

Just read something (over the weekend) about “watching the language.” Neither the Rs or Hillary! Are using “middle class” as a reference point any more...why? Because we are getting squeezed downward.
