Counting the SS tax restoration (should not have been cut in the first place, but it is was it is), workers are getting pay cuts like this:

Cutting from 40 hrs to 29: 29% pay cut
From 38 to 29: 25% pay cut
From 36 to 29: 21%
From 32 to 29: 11.3%
From 30 to 29: 5.3%

That’s pretty severe - no matter how few hours you lose. Never mind what happens once you’re forced to buy insurance on top of that.

And don’t forget the tax increases, which result in more pay cuts.

On the plus side (by libtard standards), when employers cut hours, they’ll have to hire more employees, which will lower the unemployment rate. Win, win, win! Problem solved. /s

But look at the positive side : unemployment is going down !! / sarc
Just because you cant support your family on one part-time job , you’ll have to find another, second job, if you can find one !
That’s how Zero is improving the economy thru ‘job creation’; ask Joe Biden
It’s too bad that Congress gets paid to do non-Congressional business ; maybe we should pay them only while they do Congressional bussiness , and NOT Pay when they are fundraising for their party.
Congress = part-time work for full time pay and benefits
