They have since dropped the healthcare plan replacing it with a healthcare spending account. We worked for less wages for years because the retiree healthcare plan.
Companies do not want to cover employees anymore...what would you propose as a solution to the problem?

BINGO - Everyone that is on Medicare or Cadillac company sponsored plans (I predict reneges on these promises which did happen to me) shout the loudest about repealing Obamacare. Easy enough to be comfortable when you have a roof over your head. How about a relative of mine who was self employed and retired. Visited me in The Villages and want to move here full time. Discovered could not get health insurance due to a pre existing condition. Did not move here to pursue his retirement dream and forced to stay in his home state for fear of losing coverage. Don't be so quick to throw out the baby with the wash water. Could be your relative next.
