So they get a 68% raise in hourly pay, a 33% increase in the number of hours they work, and they'll still be taking home less money if they take the health insurance.
But they'll have health insurance, which is something. Of course, if they take the family health insurance option, they'll go broke. How do employers justify this kind of shit? Do they go home and look at their kids and think, "Boy, I'm glad I'm not a janitor,"?
It will be this kind of chicanery that will eventually get us decent health care that we can all afford because we'll all be helping to pay for it, like decent, compassionate human beings. Y'know, like the kind of people Jesus said we should be?
