RIJimmy, when you say significantly do you mean like 10 percent or like 25 percent? We just had to increase ours and I had to be the guy to explain it to everyone. Employees like to see the company as the "bad guys", but there's not much we can do. We pay a lot more too, since we're bearing the brunt of the total cost of the plan. Jim in Ct is right about tort reform, but there also has to be better regulation of costs on the medical provider end.

On the bright side, Obamacare is sure to be a great thing for everyone. Just try to think of a government run program that has not been successful or lowered taxes.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
