Exactly. Look at the changes in union contracts after Obamacare. Their Taft-Hartley healthcare plans were invalidated, their healthcare costs have risen, starting wages are going up and hours going down as the minimum hours needed for benefits went up beyond the reach of most employees due to reduced labor budgets and increased hiring.

$15 per hour x 0.0 hours = $0.00

Yep. There's a lot of people who flunked math and Economics 101.

So Target gives the employees what they wanted and now it's Targets fault that economics follow cause and effect?

Only an idiot, or someone that believes government stats......but I repeat myself, would actually be surprised with the results.

I have no idea why you voted for Barack and Hillary.
