Let's take the tax collector as an example. Now if they are paying none of the plan, then yes it is a rip-off compared to the private sector.
However, if you compare to many employer plans, you'd be shocked at what the plans cost. My company's plan costs more than the $14k for a family plan, however employess are paying about $3500 plus co-pays.
My point is nothing more than be careful about what you think a "cadillac" plan is. You may very well have one yourself and not even know it.
