I didn't say quite that, I said they haven't gone up what I consider appreciably.
I had to look at my husband's paystubs and those only go back 13 months. From last year to this our health insurance premiums increased $3.74 a week, our dental $1.23. That's pretty much in line with the increases we've seen every year since his company started offering this plan
The running joke is that his yearly pay raise is pretty much enough to cover the yearly increases in the insurance, gas, bread and milk.
