Angry Health Ins WTF?!

My wife turned in her insurance paperwork today and sends me a txt that says it will cost 1837 a month for a family insurance plan. (BCBS)

I send her a text back that says $1837.00 or $18.37?

She replies $1837 a month.

WHAT! Really! Why is this legal? I told Sarah that would probably be her entire paycheck! (We don't know because she hasn't brought home a paycheck yet.) Her employer recommends that she put our kids on public aid. I'm so pissed off. She left her last job for this one because it pays almost twice as much. But we could afford the family insurance on her last job. This job would take her entire paycheck for INSURANCE! Now we have to go to public aid!?

FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Pissed off is an understatement

Thats for the family. I'm so pissed off right now. I really am. I'm not sure who to be mad at, her employer or Blue Cross Blue Shield.

For some reason I want to blame Obama
