Higher deductible healthcare. http://t.co/YBxzFZXuX5 Nice bonus. The tier system was never going to work long term. Just about everyone pays a share of their healthcare...seems fair. Get those lines rolling again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah cause I'd still be getting furloughed if the UAW wasn't on strike? My problem right now is the UAW! This has fucking zip to do with me and yet is taking money out of my pocket so someone else can get more themselves. How about I take 5 grand out of your checking account then turn to you and say "Sounds like your problem to me"? At this point I feel like the whole UAW can die out and then I can watch all their people try and hold a jobs in right to work states.
