It is disappointing that a play so obsessed with the supposed femininity of politics has so little to say about femininity itself...

But it will probably take a long time before personal responsibility or feel-good wellness programs start to pay dividends in the form of slowing costs. Until then, employers are scrambling to keep costs from exploding further. In addition to shifting more costs to employees, companies are also turning to a host of strategies to trim what they spend for workers' insurance.
