McDonald’s May Drop Health Plan

By JANET ADAMY

*** begin quote ***

McDonald’s Corp. has warned federal regulators that it could drop its health insurance plan for nearly 30,000 hourly restaurant workers unless regulators waive a new requirement of the U.S. health overhaul.

*** end quote ***

UC = Unintended Consequences

Wasn’t this supposed to cover everyone with insurance?

It would have been cheaper to put everyone, without insurance, on the Federal payroll.

Thanks, FDR, for your Wage / Price controls of WW2.

Sorry, but why is term life insurance cheap and medical insurance expensive?

Gooferment!
