I doubt it. Unions are Marxist thugs. They never catch on.

The law creates an incentive for employers to keep employees’ work hours below 30 hours a week.

And you know what?

Part time employees are rarely union members.

Unions are fishing for an ‘exemption’.

These union leader maggots have to be some of the most stupid people on earth. They just wanted it because their democrat masters told them to want it. Now they’re going to get it and they finally get around to looking at the details?

“...you finally caught on.”

‘We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it,’ remember.

Funny as hell.....Unions bankrolled this tyrant’s election - TWICE! Only, they never figured out that he wasn’t gonna do anything for them beyond busting up GM and give it to their health and pension fund, only to take it away a few years later.

When all you union thugs are down on the same rung of the ladder as the rest of America like he wants it, then you can get your say. It won’t mean squat, you don’t mean squat. You’ll do what they’ll all do: “All Hail the Great and Powerful Obama - Long Live The Obama, Bow Down!”

Exactly. It will go something like this: "This bill was not meant to punish corporations that already provide health care to large members of the workforce. It was meant to force smaller companies to provide health care." Pelosi said.

From Healthcare to US security to even school lunches,
the IMPOSTOR is destroying America with the help
of a treasonous, whoring, malignant Congress that cares
only about its brothels and personal bank accounts.

Watta bunch of saps. Too bad, the Obama worshippers didn't "get it" ....like the rest of us did.

===================================================

Only the deranged twisted mind of a progressive could have dreamed up the h'care mess.

As FReeper Lou L wrote: Shows the mess Ohaha created, and why the WH apparatchiks cannot make it work more than three years after its passage.

Each "box" represents huge organizational beauracracies with people stumbling over themselves; each "arrow" represents hundreds and thousands of information requests and transfers. Those interfaces will have some common calls, but they'll have to be customized to fit each carrier's system and customizations. It seems as though a lot is being left off the "health plan" -- all the costs, all the restrictions, have to be passed along as well.

The thousands of "Navigators"---govt-issue clerks--will offer you "guidance/" And that online calculator...does it tell you how much you're being soaked now, rather than before the saving grace of O'care?=======================================================

Amazingly the lower Rube Goldberg chart is supposed to "simplify and explain" O'care......designed by a consultant group paid to assist in the process of getting states to create exchanges (the ones that interface with 60,000 IRS agents, the strongarm HHS, and an assortment of know-nothing snoopy federal agencies).

That’s what happens when the Communists enroll EVERYONE into THE BIG UTOPIAN union. It’s a WORKERS’ PARADISE of rationing and no work.

There just aren’t enough taxpayers to afford paying everyone union wages with union benefits. IDIOTS. And not very useful ones. However, this could be the crack in Obamacare we have been praying for.

They are looking for a law that forces employers to maintain certain per week hours and penalties for reducing the number of employees...

Oh gee bub, ya think!

I have had employers tell me quite bluntly that until they see how O-care is going to work there will be no more full time workers.

The real fun bit is that these are people who as a matter of course used to provide all full time and some part time workers with health insurance. They are not opposed to offering insurance, they are just opposed to O-care because it is such a freaking mess.
