Let me try to tastefully bring up a subject, we hashed around quite a bit earlier. Insurance ! As you all know we have a rat bro in bad shape health wise! With this inmind have you guys set down and thought about what would happen to you in this situation? No guys I do not sell insurance are anything else.

I hear about and read about so many people without good insurance, and the trouble they have getting treatmemt - ( I am not talking about our rat bro ) but the general public. You guys that are overseas most of the time are your wife and kids covered full time? COBRA benefits are a god send, but not the answer to everything.

I my discussions with insurance before I find they are willing to provide insurance!! BUT, there concern is a group policy where each person is responsible for paying their cost. If? We can figure a way to pay it from a central point we a\may have a chance.

My self I do not need more insurance between medicare / medi-pac and the VA, I am well covered, but I know a lot of our younger guys are not.....

Just a thought

Another item we discussed in the past - a ready crew, 24 hr crew, suitcase crew, what ever you wish to call it. A well qualified crew of mixed trades
that are will to leave on short notice to go anywhere to help our contractors out of a bind. In and out kind of crew, each member would have to be a superior crafts person, easy to get along with, hard worker. Here again I done a lot of foot work on this before and I think it will work for us,:wtf

Perhaps our site web tech, can pull out the old poll for review?

Also the next go around we need a group of 4 or so members to do new research on the subject.

We could start with you 2 bro's, and you can seek 2 more bro's, not counsil members to help on the research. Check with the guys that wanted it on the old poll see if they are still interested? Then approach the major insurance companys to see what we need to qualifu for a decent group rate.

If 900 folks are interested we could afford to hire an insurance guy to take care of just this group, I do not volunteer.

900 people @ 400 a mo each = about a bunch of money - $360,000.00. As an example. 400 is not going to get it but an example.

Get envolved.:rockwoot:
