Seems they are not making the money some are saying, even with benefits factored in. They pay 6% of their healthcare cost to.


Public workers by the numbers

no theme there

you understand that they are not paying 6% of their healthcare costs...right?...6% of the insurance premium..maybe...but not 6% of healthcare cost...there's a difference that seems to be lost in the fog...it's the entitlement thing...if you'd ever actually had to pay your actual healthcare costs or high deductibles out of pocket you'd recognize the difference immediately
