A dispute coming to a head in East Chicago, Indiana shines a spotlight on the affordable health care issue – but not the Obamacare kind.

Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc., which purchased Ameristar Casino last year, is attempting to replace the current health care plan with one that charges employees up to $4,000 per year in payroll deductions for family coverage. At present, the riverboat casino’s 200 union employees pay nothing for individual coverage and $30/month for family and dependent coverage.
