ObamaCare Employer Mandate: A List Of Cuts To Work Hours, Jobs

ObamaCare's impact on jobs is hotly debated by politicians and economists. Critics say the Affordable Care Act, with its employer mandate to provide health insurance, gives businesses an incentive to cut workers' hours. This year, report after report has rolled in about employers restricting work hours to fewer than 30 per week — the point where the mandate kicks in. Data also point to a record low workweek in low-wage industries.
In the interest of an informed debate, we've compiled a list of job actions with strong proof that ObamaCare's employer mandate is behind cuts to work hours or staffing levels. As of Oct. 17, our ObamaCare scorecard included 351 employers. Here's our latest analysis, highlighting the consequences of cuts to work hours at more than 100 school districts due to ObamaCare's employer mandate. Recently, we examined Indiana's 10th Amendment challenge to the employer mandate. IBD also explained why the employer mandate will undercut the goals of ObamaCare — affordable, reliable coverage — even in cases when employers don't cut work hours. The ObamaCare list methodology is explained further in our initial coverage; click on the employer names in the list below for links to supporting records, mostly news accounts or official documents.
We'll continue to update the list, which we encourage you to share and download into a spreadsheet to sort and analyze. If you know of an employer that should be on the list and can provide supporting evidence, please contact IBD at jed.graham@investors.com or @IBD_JGraham.

Still think Obamacare is good for the country?

Hooray!! Obamacare lowered the cost of health insurance in 5 out of our 50 states! Yes, this is the ugly truth, health insurance will be more expensive in 45 states. The pink elephant in the room, that no one is talking about, is that this has nothing to do with health and well being and everything to do with money. If this was truly about affordable care, then things like getting charged $100 for having your temperature taken would have been addressed. Having Obamacare will not stop you from becoming bankrupt if you get cancer. This law is just a way to get the insurance industry more customers so they can pay for all the preexisting and the uninsured people they denied in the past. An extra 17,000 IRS agents have been hired as the mafia arm of the insurance companies. Ask yourself this... Were there any more Doctors or nurses hired because of this law? Is it about healthcare or paying for more sickcare? This law is just a continuation of our broken "sick for profit" health system that promotes profit and not health.

Sucks to be you: These Obamacare bumper stickers are truly embarrassing
