[QUOTE="brett636, post: 1115543, member: 249"] Unfortunately no matter which way healthcare goes for us its a double edged sword. Thanks to Obamacare premiums are expected to skyrocket in the next few years, and if the teamsters take over our healthcare they will be allotted a certain amount of money per employee per year to pay for our coverage. If rates rise more than the allotted amount the teamsters will have no choice but to cut and limit coverage. As TOS correctly stated they can do so without any recourse for us. If the company keeps the plans the way they are now they will shoulder the burden of the increased premiums no matter what they are, and this has the potential to create fiscal problems for the company down the road since nobody can really predict how much premiums will rise. Honestly I don't want to see either scenario play out, but we have been left with no choice. Obamacare is here to stay(for now), and the impact of which can't be ignored. [/QUOTE]
