Sounds like she is trying to put people completely out of business by changing this to a 40 hour rule. At least with 30 hours they can keep operating with part-timers.
GOP had better nip this one in the bud, it will only help dems keep obamacare in effect and destroy businesses.
This 30 hour work week is a socialist idea. To their way of socialist thinking all the central government has to do is edict a 30 hour work week and poof ! Just like magic all manufacurers will have to hire more employees to make the widgets to fill the orders that don’t come because of the increase in per unit costs dumped on them created by the central planners.
It’s just like believing artifically increasing the costs of fuel by restricting new refineries , drilling on Fed lands, and only 50 employees for a new pipeline. So having it be transported by railroad to processing centers who’s owner is a key contributer (Buffett) may increase the costs.
But its benefits will be; We’ll double the minimum wage,be saving the world from climate change, while letting other countrys eliminate US manufacturing jobs that will make US dependent on the central government for support.
I have a better idea defund Obamacare and dump Collins while we’re at it.
New word to describe all of the RAT-RINO-LIBS:
***************LIBIOT*****************
So now we’d have 39 hour people with no insurance instead of 29 hour people? I’m not sure this idea has been thought fully through...
To me the problem isn’t the number of hours at which a punishing regulation kicks in, the problem is that there is punishing regulation.
You figured it out, Steve. Obamacare Full Frontal: Of 953,000 Jobs Created In 2013, 77%, Or 731,000 Are Part-Time, ZeroHedge, August 2, 2013.
Yes,Yes,Yes. The scum in the sewers is better than CONgress.
It would not surprise me at all to see the day arrive when employers are fined or otherwise sanctioned for laying people off.
It wouldn't surprise me, either. The Democratic [sic] party, aided and abetted by the Vichy Republican party, never passes up an opportunity to institute new taxes.
The real vote is the vote to end debate (cloture) how did Collins vote on cloture?
Not allow but force. Businesses were already free to cut hours if they wanted to. Now they have to cut hours to avoid a penalty.
Then the poor smucks will have to pay full price to the exchange then any subsidy will come as a tax credit NEXT YEAR!
We have to pass the bill to see what’s in it.
