As Twitchy has been reporting, the layoff bomb has detonated. Many companies, both large and small, have been forced to lay off workers due to President Obamas re-election. With no hope of Obamacare being repealed, they are now forced to lay off employees in order to stay in business.
But its not just layoffs. Some companies are also contemplating cutting hours. Sadly, many companies have already done so.
Part-time is the new full-time in Obamaville.
This doesnt just hurt the workers, who now have to try to live on a far more meager salary. It hurts the country as a whole.

Come right in and step right up. See the bright lights and the oddities of nature. Inside folks, for the low price of twenty-two trillion dollars, you can see Binders of Women, Team Big Bird and entire reams of green windmills and fields full of bayonets and horses. Here lies become the truth and everything is full of sugar. And the highlight of the show with be Barack, the Exotic Prince from the Wilds of Indonesia and Kenya, with a special appearance by Oprah and a hologram of JFK. Here in the Carnival of Fools, the party never stops and no one ever has to pay the bill.
"There's a sucker born every minute," a famous connoisseur of them once said. And suckers are big business. Very big business indeed. But don't feel too sorry for the sucker. The sucker is a creature composed of ignorance and greed. He believes in his own specialness. He believes that he can fool other people into giving him their money, when actually he is the one being fleeced. The mark is an aspiring scammer who is too dumb to realize that nothing in life is free and the scam is on him.
If you browse through your email's spam folder, the chances are good that you will come upon a missive from a Nigerian prince offering you the opportunity to help him cart away his fortune in exchange for a sharp cut of the profits. These scams date back to the dinosaur years of the internet, and though there are occasional elaborations on the theme, the African scammers stick to the tried and true, even though the tried and true has become a cliche that anyone should be able to see through.
I disagree with this point. I think it will settle out to a new "normal" of a 8 hour day, 3 day week, 2 shifts. 24 hour work week. One group works Monday - Tuesday - Wednesday, and the second group works Thursday - Friday - Saturday.
24 hour work week = no 0bamacare, AND they end up with a 6 day production week without overtime.
Those numbers sound about right. If I took that bet, I lose. So I will pass. Thanks anyway.
Why is there no chance for Obamacare to be repealed? We still control the House!!! The House controls the money, therefore the Repubs control Obamacare.
We need new leadership! How about some of the Young Guns getting a shot? The old guys haven’t proven effective.
The gop? Hammer?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
