[QUOTE="tommysts, post: 1094234, member: 46039"] When we got our letter I thought it was a hoax, because it didn't have the sharp crisp print you usually receive from UPS, or Central States. It looked like it had been copied a thousand times on an old copier someone found at the flea market. Then I went on line and Googled it and found out I wasn't the only one who got this letter. I put in almost 36 years for UPS. I worked a little more than 5 to get a few extra bucks on my pension because I lost half of it through divorce earlier. I guess the extra $500 from working past 30 I get will go towards insurance. If my new wife wasn't working yet, we would be in poverty for sure. I know medical is high, because I just had surgery. I know for a fact too there is a lot of waste in the hospital system and our doctors offices too. I have always said that insurance has corrupted the country and one day will break us all. It has corrupted our doctors (greed), the patients suing everyone they can, and judges and lawyers! This BS is going to have to stop soon, or we are all going to end up throwing a brick through a window and be arrested, but be covered medically by the law. I joined this brown cafe tonight just to voice my opinion. I feel a little better now that I have said my peace, but still feel poorer:disappointed: I suppose they will be after our 401 s next. I have heard Washington talking about that, since China is starting to demand some of it's money back. It's only money:smart: [/QUOTE]
