My work “benefits” are taking money out of my paycheck.

You know, normally, when you see a minimum wage job offering insurance, you would figure for 15/h, below the poverty line, they could spare 40 a month per worker who qualifies. But.. no. Let's take this money from your paycheck, and use YOUR money, to pay for a “benefit” of working at our establishment. You live with one other adult who doesn't work? You have to take care of them too? 18% tax on your paycheck when you make 15/h. Then we will give you “benefits,” by using YOUR money to thank you with insurance. Of course.
