They want to privatize the profits but socialize the costs.
How many believe the employees will use the $500 to purchase health insurance? I would be willing to bet most of those employees will qualify for Medicade
Wow. A whole 500 bucks. That should buy them a couple weeks worth of obamacare.
This is the same Target that is now running its own gays in the fashion of JC Penney.
That’s going to help, right?
Never saw this coming. This will certainly limit government.
another peeve about Target...in the state of Hawaii Target is no longer providing shopping bags.
The law does not allow stores to provide plastic bags as of Jan 17. Target has gone a step further...they don’t time provide even paper bags anymore. Time to boycott.
Employees are not eligible for the exchange tax subsidies if they are offered insurance by their employer, but refuse it...
So Target thinks they can have their cake and eat it too?
That exemption they have for their executives healthcare insurance plans expires next year.
Do they really think this administration will keep exempting them from Obamacare forever?
Did none of their own lawyers tell them that a mere stroke of the pen will make their tiered benefits for part-time workers illegal?
Tricked again! Idiots.
Well it’s Target so there won’t be a lot of vitriol from the left, can you imagine if this was done by Walmart.
If only we had a government program that forced employers to provide health insurance to all employees. Or even better. A single payer government health insurance program. That’d be just great.
That should make a dent in the $12,000 deductible they will be paying.
Or not.
“because new online health exchanges offer workers an opportunity to buy coverage.”
Brilliant spin; whoever came up with that phrase gets a bonus! Target doesn’t want to deprive them of the benefits of the Affordable Care Act...
Priceless!
oh, which Democrat MN Senator turned Democrat MN Governor is a “Target” family heir? Would that be Sen/Gov Mark Dayton (D-MN)?
