“Estimates suggest that an employer mandate could cost 1.6 million jobs over the first five years.”
I know mine will be one of them. My boss has already said that this would be the straw that broke the camel’s back - and she’ll simply have to close the business.
Under such a scenario I could easily see every “employee” in the U.S. converted to a self-employed “contractor” who will get paid directly for their work and will be 100% responsible for taking care of their own needs. I can’t say this is such a bad thing.
