You guys pay 500-800 a month for health insurance???? Really??

 

Not to brag or anything, but I only pay $312 a year for the Wife and I, and I have a $0 CoPay for everything. Dental is $5 per month, and I get $1000 allowance per year per person.

Of all things, REALITY TV? I guess Canadians really don't follow the NFL. :lol:

Just comparing it to ours.. Have you seen big brother Canada??? It's absolutely terrible. We just don't put the money into it like the states

 

O and we have the CFL... Bigger footballs and more yards.. Although I still rather watch the nfl.

I don't know anyone who pays that much per month on health insurance. Even for family plans.

 

 

I pay about $100/month but because I work for a smallish company it costs more. Bigger companies tend to be cheaper. Family insurance might be like $230. If someone is spending $800/month for insurance they're getting shafted. And my overall deduction percentage isn't even 30% not counting 401k contribution so I don't know where those numbers come from. I have lots of customers I've talked at length with in Canada about taxation and such and Canada definitely takes a bigger bite, especially in the eastern provinces but y'all seem to get more shit from it- like your govt is a bit better at spending the tax dollars but then again it's the US that keeps the bad guys overseas in line. This budget crap is complex. :lol:

 

You have to consider some companies don't provide healthcare, and some price gouge tremendously. Try getting a family plan without employer assistance and see what it is ;)

 

My brothers company is a decent company.. Steel / Metal Fab company with about 200 employees.. Costs him 40$ or so a pay check for himself. He had to drop his wife from the plan because it was 461$ a month.

 

I'm not saying in all cases.. because at work my 1500deductable plan with 85/15 is ZERO for single full-time workers, and we get decent other benefits as well. Not no Microsoft but decent.

 

Reason I posted is to see if there were any similar instances out their, I guess that my brother lands in the minimum. Before I took the free plan at work i was covered by Tricare for 51$ a month through the military so It was never an issue of where I worked. But I know I have seen some people paying 400+ easy for premiums per month.

 

My total deductions before 403b comes out is 30-31% total between Federal/ state taxes, Fica and social security.

I'd rather pay for my healthcare too. Then I don't have to wait 6 hours to get stitches. Free healthcare is a joke, not enough beds, doctors get paid by the patient so they don't call in the on-call...free healthcare is a joke in a way. I would pay monthly fee to have better service. Damn straight.

Yes Sir it is. We renew our contract in December, and I think it will end up going up in price somewhat, which sucks, but for as good as it is I won't mind to much as long as it doesn't go through the roof.

Say what you want about me but have you seen what this country is turning into? I refuse to raise a child in this country as long as homosexuality, taking guns from innocent people, and a corrupt president are considered OK. I am ashamed of what this country has become. And in no way did I disrespect anyone that serves or served so you need to chill out.

If politics are going to be thrown around, why not make a damn thread dedicated to it so people can have fights about it their instead of anywhere info/entertainment is norm. I think it is healthy to voice an opinion on your view of politics so this is a suggestion so nothing goes further in this thread.

This has come up before. It is against site rules and it opens up for harassment and bashing.

Leaving that crap off here is smart some people get butthurt and say stupid things. Look at me, my warning point was from insulting an American guy with some total left wing opinions. Turns out he was a mod LOL.

 

If you wanna argue politics or talk about street racing join the DF or pirate4x4, anything goes....
