In reply to the discussion: UPS to drop 15,000 spouses from insurance, cites ObamaCare [View all]Loge23
(3,922 posts)First off, UPS is not changing the benefits of it's union employees who hopefully would shut down the operation if UPS came after them.
They are cutting a benefit to their non-union employees in order to....wait for it.....make more money!
Now regardless of the fact that this move will probably have no effect on the coverage of these spouses (they must be able to be covered at their job, or they won't be cut), the most onerous lie coming out of this is the vicious attack of mis-truths about the ACA - as if there isn't enough of this nonsense already out here in the business community.
UPS made over $1B in after tax net income last quarter - QUARTER!
Their CEO was paid over $10M last year. You can easily, as I did, google this information from numerous sources.
Why shit on their workers? Because they can. Just like the other corporate traitors to the people of this country who call themselves good patriotic Americans.
