Agree, you (and any other retired government worker are entitled to what the Government promised you during your working and contributing years.

Our combined Premium costs are about $4,800/yr for me (plus copays), and at 74 y/o my husband is still working in his small business, his medical costs with a small group rate is nearly $1200/mo or $14,400/year...one employee has had breast cancer, can't be covered by another insurance because of that, thus the small group plan, and a big expense for us. That's $19,000/year before copays. It's a lot on a retirement income.

Add that to a big loss in investment funds, a greatly reduced interest rate for any remaining investments, and the Obama fear factor for the foreseeable future, makes all of us more and more anxious and venerable.

Jack Benny would say: "What A Revolutin' Development This Is"....and that is an understatement!
