Subject: Breaking News Regarding Health Insurance Benefits!
As each and every one of you is already aware, as you have more than likely felt its effects, health insurance costs have risen dramatically for years now, and they are expected to continue to increase. Additionally, with the rollout of Obamacare, each and every one of us will be asked to help support the costs of the underinsured and uninsured.
It is with these facts in mind that I am excited to announce that we just completed the renewal of our insurance benefits program for 2014. Under the 2014 program, you will continue to receive essentially the same benefits as you have in the past. Furthermore, despite the continued rise in health care costs, we were able to keep premiums in check for 2014, with minimal increases in biweekly premiums, on average, of only $4!
>Human Resources will be providing you with additional details about the plan and open enrollment period over the next week. In the meantime do not hesitate to contact HR or myself with any questions.
Sincerely, $Executive

So glad you shut down the government over this one, guys! Seriously, $8 a month? This is the huge fucking cost increase I've heard talk radio assholes and right-wing douchebags screeching about? I know radio is dead as hell, so maybe Rush, Bill and company aren't making much scratch these days, but I make $8 in like 30 seconds at my job.
Anyone still bitching about a cost increase is an idiot, or doesn't make shit. Fuck them.
Anyone who won't kick up $8 to help another American who needs a hand is an asshole. Fuck them bloody and spit in their face.
*Full disclosure: I've had pretty good insurance through workplaces for about 7 years now, and I've used it a grand total of one (1) time. I'm already subsidizing other people's health care. THAT IS HOW INSURANCE WORKS.
