Health Insurance

I take it no one refutes the assertion that PBUC wants to increase the health insurance deductible to $500- wiping out almost all of the "raise".

PBUC talking point #9:

9. You signed up knowing that eventually, you'd have to pay for the privilege of umpiring. Quit your bellyachin'! Why, when I was a minor league umpire, we used to walk uphill ten miles (both to and from the ballpark) in waist deep snow from the cardboard box we were staying in to get to the stadium. The plate guy had to drag his gear along the ground in a trash bag. We ate the peanut shells off of the grandstand floor for dinner and WE NEVER COMPLAINED . . .

Strikes and outs!
