Bought my last pair of glasses today under our company's health plan. They paid for free glasses every other year up to $200.00 Had my last dental checkup last week (all was good) under my company's dental plan. We had to give up both of these (as decided by my union) as of March 1st. Still have full health insurance. Now we have to pay $70.00 per month for our health care. 100% of everything was guaranteed by our contract when I retired in May 2006. I receive a full pension every month so I shouldn't have to work again. Waiting til my SS kicks in at 62 in September of next year. Guess I am one of the lucky ones. But, everyone should have a health plan for themselves and their kids........ As far as crime is concerned, if we could take Cincinnati out and drop it in the middle of the ocean, we could down dramatically on this country's crime rate. A murder every third night and a shooting almost every day.
