Replying to My dads work screwed me in the butt with healthcare

Ok so my dad's work just straight out told everyone that they had decided health care was too expensive and unnecessary or some shit and that starting in '10 they are just getting rid of it. Now this sounds like a load of BS. This means that any family relying on this healthcare with an illness of some kind can't get covered for that illness if they switch companies because it would be a preexisting condition. My mom's work has sucky healthcare that only covers life threatening accidents. WTF?
