YMCA cutting hours of 20 employees to avoid offering helth care......but will hire more people to make up the difference.

Think about that for a second.


Democrats should have seen that coming.

For some reason Democrats watched employers for decades hold staff at 39 hours per week to avoid having to pay benefits and still it didn't cross their minds that with O-care they would be causing struggling workers to lose 10 more hours per week, a week's worth of wages per month.

O-care stunk of unintended consequences. But the fact that it was real people who were going to be reacting to the legislation and real people who were going to get hurt by it didn't matter as long as Dems got to say, "We passed something with a feel-good title."

The democrats knew exactly what pain Obamacare would cause. Obamacare wasn't the end goal, single payer is. Wreck the system, cause catastrophic problems with the economy, screw up health care even worse than it already is, to the point that normal people are demanding something be done, which will be single payer.

Whether you like it or not and no matter what the lib blogosphere tells you, businesses will do what is required to keep the doors open and remain profitable.
If that means cutting hours of workers, reducing worker rolls to les than 50 or dumping their insurance coverage, the bottom line is Obamacare is THE cause of this.
There is no amount of wishful thinking, spin doctoring or praying to the tooth fairy that is going to change any of this.
 
Take a look at the list. Most of the companies listed are taking hours from 32 to 29. Not 39 to 29. They have been screwing workers for years.

If Obama had his way, we'd have Medicare for all and employers would not have to EVEN THINK ABOUT helth care. But the GOP would never go for that. Obama settled for this GOP inspired plan....and all they have done is try to convince you and people like you that it is a bad idea.

Enough. Just stop. This is serious shit.


Read what I said and what you said. Exactly! Those companies have been screwing workers for years and yet Democrats didn't foresee that their legislation would result in people getting squeezed even harder than they're already being squeezed. Even bastions of liberalism such as colleges are doing it. This was entirely predictable. But Democrats didn't give a damn how much people were hurt. They just wanted something they could call a "win" on the books.
The GOP did bupkis. Then they got in the way of the IDEA of single payer. Leaving very little room to maneuver. This is a GOP inspired plan. The mandates are inspired by the GOP. There are incentives for businesses that offer insurance.

The GOP was never let in on the discussions that created Obamacare. They were locked out by the Dumbos. And when they did try to add something to it, Nutty Nancy killed it.


The US health care system was causing economic disaster. It HAD to be reformed.
A simple solution for that? Tort Reform. However, the Dumbos would never allow that because it effected their friends the Trial Lawyers.
 
Go down the list, TT......

Lots of companies claim that they will just cut hours. As if they had too many man hours before Obmcare....and we're just paying these workers for standing around. But now that Obamacare is coming.....they can just eliminate shifts and the work will still get done.

Bullshit. The reason given .......... Obmcare.......is bullshit.

you'd like it to be bullshit. but it isn't.
 
As a result of the high taxation and other expenses businesses will incur due to Obamacare, layoffs and reductions in hours are becoming the norm.
This is just the beginning..

ObamaCare Employer Mandate: A List Of Cuts To Work Hours, Jobs - Investors.com

Whomever stated Obamacare was a job killer was 100% spot on...

Who ever didn't see this coming regardless of the ACA is lacking in vision. The ACA is just an excuse for what a lot of businesses have been wanting to put into place for years. Pretty soon your jobs will change your pay structure and you will be either 100% commission based or partially commision based. Mark my words. This has nothing to do with ACA. its just an excuse.

The way you characterize this is just wrong.

If course the system needs reform. But not like this. Not via government sanctions.
The sensible thing to do would have been to outlaw the group policy system where employment was the sole source of insurance.
Before all this HMO/PPO stuff, medical care was relatively inexpensive.
Of course tort limits on medical malpractice cases needs to be severely curtailed.
All mandated coverage needs to be banned.
The private sector needs to take over the whole thing.
There should be cross state boundary competition among insurance carriers. There should be no mandates on coverage. There should be common sense in who and what should be covered.,
For example. A person with a pre-existing condition such as a heart ailment should not be denied outright. If they need insurance, they get coverage for all other maladies and perils. If they choose to have their heart condition covered, their premiums will reflect the additional risk to the carrier. Same way auto or homeowner insurance works.
 
I'm fine with that, I will just buy my own health coverage and work for who I want to work for.

Now I don't have to worry about mandatory overtime either ;)

The rules will always be in favor of those that own businesses. You can unite all you want. Business ownership is the key. Diversify your income stream and no one can control you. How incredible is it that people spend the best hours of their day working to make someone else wealthy? BTW don't show your ignorance Malcolm was in no way shape or form interested in Communism.

If cost rises you either have to raise the cost of your product/service or cut costs.

The people that remain are going to either have to work harder with less help or work less with the same help.

If I can employ 1 person for 40 hours and lose money or hire 2 people for 20 hours each and save money. What would any businessman do?



sorry, the facts don't help you and I know you don't want to admit it.

but ask yourselves this;

Why are the people that supported it the most exempt and why are all the pols not on it?

If it would save so much, why is every last Fed employee on it right now?
 
Montis Steakhouse.

Revenues: 10,000,000. At $25.00 per meal, that is 400,000 Meals.
Employees. 153


Average labor cost in restaurant industry is 33% of revenues. 3,300,000
Average profit margin ( after all expenses including labor ) in industry is 3%

Profit for this restaurant estimated to be 300,000 after everyone is paid.

Subtracting full time employees....this restaurant has 130 employees who need to be insured. The penalty ( in 2015 ) is $2000 per employee.

Additional cost added to labor is $240,000.

They would have to increase the price of a meal by 2.4% ( 60 cents ) to recover the difference and maintain profit margin.

Since every other restaurant in the area would also have to do this in order to maintain staff levels, it would not become a competitive disadvantage.

Think about that.

uh no

the cost of the products they buy will also go up
utilities will go up
cost of living will go up


That's very good math though, if only all the facts were used.

Sorry spoon. I take the position of self empowerment. If you want to be an employee fine. Just don't complain when they move the prize and you are caught with 1 source of income. Thats exactly why you're so upset at what may happen and blaming it on something that has nothing to do with it.

Tort Reform will solve our healthcare problems? We actually have a model for that, i.e. empirical evidence for that-----for just how wrongheaded you are.


STUDY: Texas Tort Reform Did Not Reduce Health Care Costs

In 2003, Texas voters approved Proposition 12, tort reform which capped medical malpractice payouts and made it more difficult for patients to sue hospitals. Republican politicians, led by Gov. Rick Perry (R), claimed that doctors were providing less services to patients because they feared getting sued. Republicans, joined by a “Yes on 12” campaign funded by the health insurance industry, promised that the amendment would lower health care costs and bring an influx of doctors to the state. Since 2003, Republicans nationwide have touted Texas as a model for tort reform.

Now, a group of researchers studying Texas Medicare spending have found no decrease in doctors’ fees for senior citizens between 2002 and 2009. Medicare payments to doctors rose 1 to 2 percent faster than the rest of the country, Northwestern professor Bernard Black, a researcher on the study, said.

In urban and high population counties, the study’s authors expected to see lower health care costs stemming from a reduction in medical tests doctors previously used to protect themselves from lawsuits. However, the researchers found no decrease in costs and a slight increase in medical tests performed. “This is not a result we expected,” said Bernard Black, a co-author and a professor at Northwestern University’s Law School and Kellogg School of Management.

Ben Sherman


Now-----now 10 years after the Republican-Rick Perry sponsored Tort Reform/Prop 12 passed in Texas and-----and a couple of years after Tex Perry claimed doctors were attracted to the Texas healthcare market because of tort reform, the number of primary care physicians per capita in Texas is significantly lower than in the rest of the United States.

Nothing to do with Obamacare, and everything to do with a greedy employer looking to save a buck.

Wrong..Business owners protecting their interests, investment and profit margins against increased expenses.
A person who has never taken a risk and thinks of employment as an entitlement such as yourself would not understand these concepts.
