We are supposed to be “outraged” that these individuals are “getting screwed” because they don’t get to keep the exact same plan and they already pay more for their health insurance than those of us who get our insurance subsidized by the big employers (I guess that makes us moochers?).

Meanwhile, we are on our third insurance plan in eleven months (thanks employers!). Because I really love the headache of figuring out what’s different about this one and is my doctor still covered and making sure that all the doctors and the pharmacies have the new insurance card and what’s the new copay and…

I know that we’re fortunate to have insurance. I don’t for a minute believe that a) that cost doesn’t come out of the salary and b) that I have any control whatsoever regarding it.
