[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1188291, member: 43436"] Few private-sector employers offer health insurance to retirees. According to Towers Watson, the number has fallen to less than 15% today, down from 66% in 1988. And the companies that do offer such insurance typically mandate the retiree foot nearly the entire premium -- the average retiree under 65 pays nearly $10,000 for individual coverage and $20,000 for family (typically just him & his spouse at that point) coverage. And we're complaining about what amount again??? The grievances being aired -- that UPS is somehow screwing its employees with crappy compensation -- are faux and demonstrate just how out of touch with the realities of the job market status quo many BrownCafe members are.
