You missed the key word "FREE" . Normally when one gets something, like health care for free, it eventually leads to abuse of the service which then results in employers realizing that the workers have to pay part of the cost of said service.

Well working a schedule with time off is a good way to keep people.100% insurance will get you some,but Massey needs to learn how to treat their people more than anything.

I somehow think that "Hell Will Freeze Over" before you will ever see your wish for treatment as humans as long as the don is running the show.
