Times have changed. It used to be that unions would strike for increase in wages. No longer.

I have a friend who told me that she and her husband can no longer afford health insurance. They are a small business owner and their rates increased from $300 to $500 a month this summer. So they dropped their insurance.

Wrong, the rates increased from $500 to $800 this summer. I guess I was thinking about the $300 difference when I posted the above.
