Sorry you lost your jobs so that Sandra Fluke can have her birth control and abortions.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, Darden Restaurants, a casual dining chain best known for their Red Lobster, Olive Garden and LongHorn Steakhouse restaurants, is "experimenting with limiting the hours of some of its workers to avoid health care requirements under the Affordable Care Act when they take effect in 2014".


So much for sucking up to Obama

What about Lockheed? Didn’t 0bama extort them so they wouldn’t do their layoffs prior to the election resulting in bad press for 0bama that wouldn’t be reported anyway?

We rec. 2 announcements this morning as well. We are a full-service technology vendor for healthcare providers. We got 2 notifications this morning that 2 of our clients are closing down now, and are a direct result of last night's election loss. There are several others that have been holding out that I know of... hoping on an Obama/Obamcare defeat. Those 2 medical practices are a total of 12 physicians and about 40-50 support staff in total... not to mention our lost revenue, etc. I don't know how many more there will be, but I'm expecting the small-mid size medical practices to start folding up left and right. This is not looking good at all, some of us will likely be out of work before Christmas at this rate.

Thanks democrats, the economy is improving and only rich people are being affected (those dirty SOB's). 4 MORE YEARS! God I feel sick

Moslems and Congress are EXEMPT, so presumably
any company run by CongressCHEATERS or Moslems
is exempt from the taxes, too.

Equal under the Law ? -— NOT ANYMORE.

One of the first things to hit me when the news started looking bad last night was that the companies who were waiting until after the election to make hiring decisions were not going to be hiring because of Obama winning. They know they’re in a holding pattern for another 4 years. They have no idea whether Obama is going to put them out of business through regulation and taxes.

If I owned a business that allowed moving, there’s no way I would stay in the Divided States of America; I’d move my business to someplace that valued business and then if I wasn’t totally disgusted with this country altogether I’d decide whether I could afford to still live in the Divided States of America.

There can be no middle class in this country now. It's either the proletariat, or the serfs. The 51% have chosen serfdom, and serfdom they shall receive. May their masters not be as brutal as the masters of the past.

The article doesn’t cover the 2.5 million Defense Contractor jobs that will be lost due to Sequestration. One of those jobs will likely be mine. When this happens I will have been laid off 3 time in the last 4 years.

Not True: Whole new branches of law firms will employe millions of lawyers in the field of obamacare law.

Rush will have new advertisers. Instead of dealing with the IRS on back taxes, lawyers will be needed for every phase of dealings with Obamacare.

Being denied that heart transplant? Our law firm will get you a heart from the IRS.

Your company being closed by IRS without any reason whatsoever? You need lawyers to sue the IRS.

Millions and millions of lawyers will make millions and millions of dollars thanks to obamacare.

Northrop Grumman should be added - they sent out an advanced letter a month ago due to the inevitable sequestration.

Heck, just go ahead and add most of the defense contractors in the country to this list.
