Add Boeing employees to the ObamaCare victims list, but just the nonunion ones

Here's some details:

Deductibles, the share of medical costs that employees pay annually before their plan kicks in, will go up to $300 for individuals, an increase of $100. For families, the new deductible will be $900, an increase of $300.

In addition, Boeing is instituting a copayment of 10 percent after the deductible has been met. The copayment will rise to 20 percent in 2012.

But the most telling portion of the article is this snippet:

In a letter mailed to employees late last week, the company cited the overhaul as part of the reason it is asking some 90,000 nonunion workers to pay significantly more for their health plan next year. A copy of the letter was obtained Monday by The Associated Press.

Why just nonunion?  Well, the union hacks have contracts, you see.  How very nice of Obama to protect his friends.  Screw the midterm – let's race towards 2012.
