All I know
I work at a grocery store as a union worker, and have been there 8 years..(with the union 22 years) and we have good healthcare. As employees, we pay $5.00 a week...$20.00 a month while the employer picks up roughly $700.00 apiece.
Now...logically I know that this deal wont last...many say that healthcare will be a major issue next contract.
I have sleep apnea and also type II diabetes, and were I paying out of pocket no insurance, my health care and medication costs would approach $500.00 a month.
Would public health care work for me?

Re: We All Get Old and Decrepit No Matter How Many Sit-Ups We Do
IIRC, you used to be kinda chunky as a comedian...are you now buff and funny both?
