I would like to thank my Teamsters local union 89 for slashing my medical benefits in half!

Today a letter, from my insurance company arrived. Apparently my co-pay just went from $10 to $20. My coverage also got cut in half. As for all of those people who have pension plans; they're screwed. So long early retirement!

Lucky for me people still have the right to protest. So I went to this little shindig:

Maybe a good ol' tarin will show my union leaders not to screw with my medical benefits.

I’m sorry that happened CounslerCoffee.

You might consider individual insurance. The rates from Anthem Blue Shield ( https://seca.anthem.com/ratequote/app) for Kentucky look pretty good.

Pensions are risky since the money is easily stolen or gambled away on risky investments.
