Bush’s fault.
Sorry...as unChristian as it may sound, it’s gonna be fun to watch.
Buh bye.
But free contraceptives! Free abortions! Free end-of-life counseling! Eddie Shore! Old-time hockey!
This whole new part-time working situation will create a new market for people to probably working two jobs. Possibly restarant owners may trade some of their workers with other restaurants to avoid employ any one single employee more than 40 hours. It should be interesting to see how this works out?
Couldn't happen to nicer people!
Academia created the empty headedness that is at the very heart of Obamunism. It wasn’t hard to predict that the social marxism they corrupted education with would come back and bite them in the ass hard, and it’s only gonna’ get worse. In fact, it’s just the beginning.
This is an accelerating trend as more and more Obamabots are discovering just why the rest of us can’t stand him. Many, if not most, large American companies are slashing worker’s hours and/or converting a lot of their full-time staff to part-time to avoid the penalties associated with ZeroCare.
While I enjoy the irony, I also see a dangerous potential to all of this - It could easily open the door to expanded union membership by those hoping that union action may be able to restore their hours, pay and benefits. While I doubt that they can, this is going to be a VERY rude awakening to those who thought they were about to get another free ride from Uncle Sugar at the expense of the rest of us!!
Sucks to be them but I couldn't be happier for them.
All part of a highly-orchestrated and long-term plan.

Don’t blame me. I voted for Romney.
Good.

So these professors will work less hours, earn less pay, and still be required to buy obamacare insurance, at a higher premium because they cannot buy at the group rate their employer had before?
Just nitpicking:
I remember reading in other articles that the threshold for the number of full-time employees was 30, not 50; and that the demarcation between “part-time” and “full-time” is 28 hours per week, not 30.
In other words, to avoid Obamacare, a business can employee up to 30 employees who work over 28 hours per week; but employees #31, 32, 33, etc., must work no more than 28 hours.
In any case, I expect unemployment to roughly double in about a year.
Also, I’ve just read on NewsMax that HHS, which administers Obamacare, will impose a 3.5% tax per Obamacare insurance policy in those states that have rejected setting up their own HIX (health insurance exchanges) opting instead for the “default” position of the law that allows the federal government to set up its own exchange.
Obamacare is the giant suppository that was prescribed by Doc 0bama and the Dims, with a helpful shove by SCROTUS..
Nice to see the man his programs and the socialist communist lifestyle they rabidly support is effecting them first. Enjoy
Wait until these people who get their hours reduced are forced to pay for their health insurance.
Be careful what you wish for.
The Marxist Revolution - this is how it begins.
Odd - the United States spent countless millions of dollars and the lives of so many of its heroes to combat communism in Europe, Asia, and around the world, and... now we’ve voted it into office without so much as a murmur of protest.
Live long enough, see everything.
