Just spotted this article in SF Chronicle's web site, SFGate.com

The story is about employers using the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act to deny benefits to employees and survivors. They lean heavily on the part of the act that shields them from lawsuits.
Please take a minute to read the article and come back here for discussion.
I think the actions of the employers are reprehensible and immoral whether they are actually legal. The law is not always moral or fair. This is an issue that needs to be tackled immediately if not sooner.
Act up! Write to your federal elected officials and let them know how you feel about this form of greed and corruption.
