As far as the notion of a single payer system I don't think that's true... Oh wait... Harry Reid says Obamacare will lead to single-payer system

Okay so who is ready to give up pay and scope to keep healthcare?

At first I laughed out loud....and then I thought, ohhhhh, that's next.:eek:

Like your MD88, the Dog does not consider that what's holding this up wasn't designed for the load ....

That's when all DAL pilots, regardless of ideology, will figure it out and get mad. Right now, looks like that's the next shoe to drop.

Just curious, Buzz, and not posted as flamebait.

Do you use Tricare or Delta as primary?

But ouch, I can see it, mil dudes get Tricare, straight up airline dudes get the pay cut to pay for healthcare. The RIF will form soon.

Not me because it won't matter in the long run. Remember this term 'imputed income'. Get back to me in a couple of years.

I think you are right. UPS opened that door.

Tricare, which now has been assumed by UHC, same as Delta. And premiums are going up....and providers are saying no.

UHC made 5 Billion last year, did not treat a single patient or improve the life of anyone. Just an administrative money pit which has a carve out in anti trust law to engage in anti-competitive business practices. If George Washington were alive today, we'd be marching on Minnesota.

UHC is why, politically, our nation is where it is at with regard to health care.
