I could not believe this when I read it.

"The pets of Palm Beach Community College employees will qualify for discounted group medical insurance beginning in January, but domestic partners are still barred from receiving similar benefits."

So pets are placed above humans for health insurance? Although I do not agree with having pets in general, I understand that people take them very seriously and may need help in caring for their health, but should they be put above people?
