One of the worst meetings of every year was deciding just how crappy of an insurance plan we could in good faith offer our employees.

My experience was similar, yet different. our plan was never crappy. but when we started we cover the entire cost -employee AND dependents. As it grew progessively more expensive Over the years, we had to make the employees contribute , up to half.

but we always had good coverage, and since they were geoup policies, pre-existing comditioms were not excluded. I have no idea why you had to choose a crappy policy.

Yeah, but so what? In 93's world, your and my experience is merely the anecdotes of two guys on Parliament, whereas his experience is that of "most people".

It's funny that you would use this thread to accuse me of this. Specific to this health care discussion I asked "the other side" to let me know what their experience with the ACA was. I shared my own experience and never suggested that it was somehow universal.
