Paycheck Size

That is crazy. I've always purchased my own health insurance even when the company I'm working for offers it and I only pay $158/mo

You're incredibly lucky. I'm on a 80/20 plan through AEtna and I pay over $550 a month for myself and my wife. That went up over $100 last year when the insurance companies were told they would have to cap their increases, so they got their money while they could. That's over $1000 for the year. About a 25% increase.

Instead we'll be handed worthless vouchers for "everything you need."

Isn't it sad that many people actually want that?

Try being type 1 diabetic, coming off congestive heart failure within the past year, and your only 26.....
Thats my position. Heath care wont even look at me.

That does not sound like something I'd like to try... Does not sound fun at all.

Not sure if the provider matters that much but I have blue cross blue shield granted it's just for me I have medical, dental, and vision for that $158/mo and that's even after they rated me up because I own a motorcycle...
