Med insurance is a basic benefit.
These ins. costs just reflect the spiralling med costs in our society.

"Basic Benfit"....that implys it doesn't add to the hourly cost of employing a teacher.
"Spiralling med costs" well maybe part of those costs is the fact that the medical industry has to provide benifits to it's employees as part of their overhead. Perhaps their malpractice insurance is maybe a bit on the high side??? Perhaps the cost of R&D is expensive...to find that life saving drug to keep U alive for another 5 minutes.
Medical costs are something that is realitivily new say within the last 45 years...before that if you got sick....you died, and there wasn't much in the wauy of medical costs simple huh. But with new technology they can cure or keep you alive much longer and that means a higher cost. So do you wana pay or gawd forbid DIE.
