OUCH!Employers shrug off Obamacare, robbing Republicans of a campaign issueQuote:
The law, meanwhile, is reducing the number of Americans who lack health coverage as intended, as a new report from the Rand Corp. shows. And just as important, many unintended consequences that critics of the law predicted have failed to materialize.

Obamacare hasn’t killed jobs
The law has helped the uninsured
There aren’t that many people negatively affected by the law.
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/obamacare-fades-as-a-republican-campaign-issue-200355242.html The employers shrugged off employees hours, so they could be exempt from covering the employees under obamacare. Current employees got their hours cut to 28, and new hires only get 28. Let me give you a family list here.
Nephew has been applying for jobs. No full time available. Past job was 28 hours. New job is 28 hours, but a little more pay.
Niece couldn't find work. Just started a temp job with Staff Source. Part time temp.
Son-in-law got hired by Walgreens. 28 hours. Previous employer got rid of all employees with time and higher pay, because of obamacare. He was out of work for a year.
Middle daughter works for a local grocery store chain. 28 hours.
Youngest daughter works for the local college. 28 hours.When obamacare went into effect, all employees except professors and some staff were cut to 28 hours. Starts an additional job tomorrow in Merrillville. 28 hours.
You have to have 2 part time jobs to make a living, and insurance is on you, not the employer.
They all have insurance now, thanks to Governor Pence and HIP2. No thanks to obama and his commiecare. obamacare resulted in a great job loss, cuts in hours, and employees losing benefits.
