I once worked for a small co. that was purchased by another co., and when we got the new insurance details, I read through them and was horrified. So I went to my boss he and another co-worker were discussing it as well. But they thought it was great. Hell, it covered EVERYTHING at the bottom end. Optical, dental, chiropractic, etc. Oh boy, wasn't this great! Oops, total insurance coverage was capped at $25K. Stanford, MIT, and Cal engineering grads. The new place was run by an idiot with a Phd in psych from Cal. I expressed my view by saying WTF! Shortly thereafter the policy was tossed and a sane one which had $1M cap, and of course didn't cover the bottom end was put in place, i.e. insurance as opposed to an inefficient payment mechanism. The idiot with the psych deg was shown the door and replaced with a guy from our co. Good riddance. Obama is being almost as stupid.
