Sometimes a punch in the mouth followed by an apology turns out to be more acceptable than a warning followed by a slight slap in the face followed by another warning followed by a medium whack followed by another warning finally followed by a punch in the mouth. The way they've done it, when discussions begin on eliminating the benefit going forward, people will darn well realize that just saying "you can't do that" probably won't work and will be more accepting of whatever the final outcome is.
I understand where the Vanguard employees are at. Despite the fact that it was clearly stated that the dollars they had accrued weren't vested and that, in fact, the entire program could be canceled and the accounts zero'd out, you don't want to believe it could actually happen. Until it does.......... I benefited from a so-so retiree health insurance plan from 58 until Medicare and would have been more than a bit pissed if the rug had been pulled out from under me. And it could have been.
