[QUOTE=Explosions;42400202]Why does Obamacare need to be reexamined?[/QUOTE] Isn't the rising cost causing more businesses to struggle in keeping the same level of coverage for all of it's employees, which in turn causes things like decreased work hours for part time employees, layoffs, increase in product prices, and other employee cuts to keep up with the insurance plans they have to pay for? Don't get me wrong, I think so far it's looking pretty good in recent time but still...

Can the GOP die and be replaced already?

[QUOTE=Splarg!;42400836]Like how Papa John's complains that they have to raise the price of a Pizza by a few cents, then turns around and goes WE'RE GIVING AWAY 2 MILLION FREE PIZZAS.[/QUOTE] That's a terrible example.

[QUOTE=Explosions;42400924]That's a terrible example.[/QUOTE] It's an example of how companies are politically opposed to the law and find ways to make it look problematic.

[QUOTE=Splarg!;42401049]It's an example of how companies are politically opposed to the law and find ways to make it look problematic.[/QUOTE] Yeah the first part does but the part about the pizza giveaway is not any sort of criticism. By all accounts, they would have lost more money had that ad campaign not been conducted. Large corporations like Papa John's don't run these campaigns unless they know they will make money. And if there's one things you can always count on corporations to do, it's make money.

[QUOTE=Rangergxi;42400387]Can the GOP die and be replaced already?[/QUOTE] No because the other conservative third parties are even further right than the GOP.

[QUOTE=Explosions;42400362]Yet another victim of the conservative propaganda machine.[/QUOTE] [URL]http://obamacarefacts.com/obamacare-smallbusiness.php[/URL] Well for small business' (not all of them of course) and those with more the 50 employees could be affected by the tax. Part time workers hours are cut to save more money for the coverage full time employees need because the level of coverage must be the same for everyone. What can be done to fix this? I mean, even Obama acknowledge that the law will have some problems to iron out in due time, so it's not like I'm saying that Obamacare is shit. And plus, with the cost of coverage on the individual level, I believe a user here on facepunch gave an interesting example. Why spend so much for insurance ($4,000) when you can just pay a yearly $95 fine and go on with life without it. Insurance is expensive as hell. No need to call me a "victim". I just want to have some more insight. You seem knowledgeable about the Obamacare.

Well I'm not very knowledgeable but the source you showed me says on the front "96% of employers won't pay more.

[QUOTE=Explosions;42411416]Well I'm not very knowledgeable but the source you showed me says on the front "96% of employers won't pay more.[/QUOTE] But is this percentage only counting Business' that are "registered" and insured? [QUOTE]Today, almost half of America's uninsured are small business owners, employees or their dependents.[/QUOTE] Probably reading that wrong on my part.

[QUOTE=viper shtf;42411693]Correct. And then when the employees can't afford to buy insurance, they'll be fined.[/QUOTE] You mean the employer? He won't be fined until the employer mandate starts in 2015. And like I said in my other post, when the cost is 4 grand, why not go ahead and just pay the fine which would be cheaper.
