Correct, when I said "that" I mean of the salary and not the premium.

Isn't Obamacare going to fix that?
It should address it but not overnight.

Wait, I thought you began by saying the county seat of Will County is the fastest growing city in Illinois? Wouldn't that be unlikely or "strange" to happen if the trickle down of providing basic services to the local economy and investment in the infrastructure to promote business growth wasn't already occurring?
