[QUOTE="Atomic_Smurf, post: 1110115, member: 46684"] The Affordable Care Act seems to be taking its toll on the healthcare that UPS has provided its employees for decades. Time will tell but it doesn't sound good. All of the new taxes,penalties and other consequences of the legislation are hitting the company in the pocket book & now that money is going to Washington DC instead of towards Teamster pay and benefits. Obama care, to make it simple, is the redistribution of healthcare from those that earn it to those that dont. We are negotiating with a smaller pie this time because Hoffa decided his loyalty to the Democratic party was more important than his loyalty to the rank & file. I'm just trying to figure out why our union president would support this legislation when we had so much to lose and absolutely nothing to gain. Any thoughts? [/QUOTE]
