[QUOTE="10 point, post: 2082198, member: 52520"] Also what you get when people don't vote on issues that greatly affect their futures. Company netted 1 bil/yr in 1995-1997 yrs and healthcare was at no cost to employees. Now they net 9.9 bil, spent 5 bil on purchasing other companies (etc) leaving 4+ bil left over and healthcare is now going to cost each hrly more. Be thankful for what we have but watch the horizon for what's coming. Times are changing. Business is changing. The federal government is yet asking to tax the corporations even more (under this potus directives) so more of them can try to move out of the USA to survive the cheap competition nipping at their bottom line market share here. There's no easy answers but not voting on CBA's and national issues is the auger that the bacteria of dilution grows on. People in Afghanistan risked their very lives to vote for their new leadership and Americans can't even return a free ballot in the mail or stop at the SAFE voting booth for fifteen minutes. Pathetic. P.S. I know about boiling the frog slowly scenario and how it applies. The problem today is finding a frog that cares enough to jump. [/QUOTE]
