  • Doesn’t matter if you pay the full $27k or if you pay $5 and the employer pays $26,995, either way it’s $27k in your benefit package. Just because it doesn’t pass through your pocket first doesn’t mean it’s not your money that you earned.

    I concede that you would not get a $27k raise if your employer didn’t have to cover insurance. However, there would be a whole lot of extra money allocated to compensation packages. Well, really the same amount of money, but vastly reduced costs.
