Absolutely, let’s wait on the government to once again bail us out! After all, look how well it worked for our lending institutions and auto makers. If you believe the government will make health care more affordable, I have a couple nice bridges for you to buy.

The amount of $500/month seems very high to me for a part-time position. Certainly the city is not paying $500/employee and the vast number of those are full-time. Can someone who is insurance savy blog in on this topic. Is there a legal precedent to provide full coverage for part-time employees?

They should have just waited on the health care reform bill to pass instead of funneling more money into insurance.
