so in the salaried root -- salaried groups, people hit that and the cost go up.people who can't afford it or who have a spouse with coverage if they drop out of the plan because they can't spend $1000 a month. so what remains are older, sicker people who have no other options. so this creates a classic death spiral where you have increasingly costly group. and this benefits companies because the more people who drop out, well, that's people they don't have to pay for. another way i have seen another factor increasing these costs is that companies can charge the salaried people more, and some of them do, to subsidize what they have to pay for to be collectively bargained. don't blame the unions for this. this is the company saying we can't get out a paint the union guys, we're going to charge the salaried guys more and we'll use that excess about today so we don't have to pay. and, of course, they will all start to drop out. but enjoy it while it lasts. so that's a trend i've seen with retiree health care. so the answer to your question is, it is unlikely that we

group except for salaried unions which are ready. >> they do. actually what has been interesting is seeing how beleaguered they are as well. whether it's steelworkers groups, any number of them in manufacturing i constantly fighting these brush force with the company's because companies use a variety of tactics which i mentioned in my butt, ways to try and get around those contracts they made. the star is example i thought was this midwestern company a major actress. they really think hard about how they can get data paying these benefits. they came up with a variety of tactics. one was to exaggerates the cost and tell people it was really really costly and may be the union would agree to give them some concessions. the other way was to up create a unit and sped off and have it go bankrupt and then, of course the retiree health care would be wiped out. the other was what they called creeping take place. it works like this. you make little tiny cut one year. maybe you raced into by $5 a month, something like that. you do a couple of these and a f
