[QUOTE="sortaisle, post: 1160848, member: 17605"] There is a difference between premiums dropping and the rate of increase dropping. One means there has been a drop in dollars out of our pockets and the other means more dollars are still coming out of our pockets but not as much of an increase as the previous years. This is a tactic Obama loves to use...word play to make things sound better. Granted, things are better-ish but most people read it as a decrease in money out of their pockets when it isn't. Other presidents have done the same as well. Bagels, while it's true that UPS has been trying to get us to pay premiums for the last couple of contracts, since the ACA has been slowly enacted UPS made a HARD IMMOVABLE stance of getting out of the insurance business. You can't say it's because of the ACA but you can say that the ACA is the elephant in the room when it comes to UPS wanting out. [/QUOTE]
