UNIONS PROTEST HEALTH PLAN

The labor unions in California are protesting Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's proposal about health care. According to the labor unions the Governor's proposal would gouge the middle class. The Governor's plan would require individuals to purchase health care insurance, with the state providing subsidies for the poor. Under the plan, individuals earning more than $35,735 and families of four making more than $72,275 would not receive subsidies.
