Looking at open enrollment options and comparing insurance costs between my employer (government) and my wife’s (health care). Her premium for dental through the same provider is 8 times as expensive. This system is stupid.

@camless I think some people fail to take into account the total compensation package of government employment when comparing salaries with the private sector. My employer pays almost $33k in medical premiums alone. Our deductible is $250 for the year.

@bryan It really is. I get PAID about $240/month to be on my wife's plan (both government)... My last employer, a consultant form, had me pay $250/month for dogs*** coverage.
