"Except that any employer over 16 people (if I remember the number right) has to provide healthcare under the law."

The number of employees is not important.

What is important is that any employer can decide to NOT provide insurance and pay a fine that is less that the cost of the insurance.

This was done by design.

Upon the effective date, every employer sponsored plan in America will cease to exist. Their stockholders will INSIST upon it.

Everyone will go into the exchanges and those with income will pay through the nose, those without will get a free ride and be at the doctor every other Thursday for more Prozac and Opioids.

You forget one thing... Everyone except those in UNIONS, or IN the Government (like Congress), and those who work for specific companies that are associated with waivers, and the like. I think this is how the US government will favor certain “good” corporations over others - all a part of their big plan to engineer the marketplace, and people’s social freedoms as well. (See the Soviet Union, and Nazi Germany, and modern day Middle Eastern Nations for a couple other examples with various differences which are really in name only).

More ways for the politburo to control the “workers” while they pretend to be “protecting” us from evil business owners.

I wonder what would happen if all CONSERVATIVES decided to “strike” when Obamacare does take full effect (IF we can’t stop it before then)?
