OBAMACARE EMPLOYER MANDATE TO BE DELAYED FOR SOME COMPANIES

Specifically, according Bloomberg, businesses with 50-99 workers have until 2016 before being penalized for not providing health-care coverage to full-time workers, according to final regulations released by Treasury.

Additionally, businesses with 100 employees or more must offer coverage to at least 70% of full-time workers in 2015 and 95% in 2016; those that don’t will face penalty; Exemption in place for seasonal workers, those defined as generally at jobs 6 mos. or less/yr "While about 96 percent of employers are not subject to the employer responsibility provision, for those employers that are, we will continue to make the compliance process simpler and easier to navigate,” Asst Secretary for Tax Policy Mark J.

And you can bet that in 2016, it will be delayed again in order to grease the skids for Her Majesty, The Hildabeast, to take take over where obama left off.

The emperor has deemed it fitting to delay implementation of the law for two years so as to affect the 2014 elections as little as possible.

“dim lites, aka republicans, don’t have any spine to stand up to him. “

It’s worse than the GOPe being spineless. They have plenty of guts when it comes to fighting their own party’s conservative base. What’s going on here is that the Republican Establishment and their corporate and Chamber-of-Commerce masters are all in on the scam. Sure, they like to make anti-Obamacare pronouncements, and they would like to tweak the law so their favorite donors can skim off more of the drippings, but the establishment Republicans will never do anything to truly stop the Affordable Care Act. They’re all going to make millions off of it.

If obama announced that millionaires involved in the movie industry were exempt from paying income taxes, the republicans and the media wouldn’t say one word against him. Neither would Justice Roberts.

GOP should end healthcare insurance at work.
(Fix the tax code.) This old WW2 wage and price control idea is outdated and stupid.

And repeal the mandates so the market and consumers prevail.

“Officials on Monday said that any business claiming they were eligible for the new one-year delay because they have fewer than 100 workers must certify, under penalty of perjury, that it had not reduced its workforce merely to qualify for that exemption.”

If the Chief Executive Officer of the United States doesn’t have to obey the laws but can twist them into anything he wishes, why can’t we?
