You call this a good deal?

Has anyone else noticed how horrible the choice for insurance is this year? The state took away the only good option for insurance and left us with 3 horrible choices. Some people have said "well just get Kaiser." Unfortunately it's limited to certain zip codes and we're not in one and we don't live in the San Luis Valley so that's out.

The deductibles are out of site and we'll probably just get those met when the coming fiscal year is up. The premiums are going up too which makes the whole deal a farce.

What can we do? Writing your congressman or even the governor are a good start. I've read where you need to write to the governor instead of e-mailing him as he only answers a small percentage of what he receives. Who knows maybe the union could help us here too since it covers thousands of people all over the state.

Maybe it is time to move on as we keep getting put down and put down. If it isn't the Fort it's the state. It would be nice if we could get the upper hand once in awhile. What do you think?
