actually i did provide insurance but some of my fly by night competitors didnt and made it hard for me to compete. that is why good employers welcome the idea that obamacare will level the playing field.

are you having a problem comprehending how it will work? the employer will simply pay the $1000 penalty and let the government provide the insurance.

still what we pay now is very low compared to then. plus with increased standard deduction these days you have to have a pretty good income to even reach 28% of your total income.

well i dont think you have ever run a business. i have and if i had the oppertunity to provide insurance to my employees for $1000 per year i would have jumped at it. most employers want to do what they can to make their workforce better employees.

the top rate in the 50s was 91%. sounds like its pretty low now.

lol. cry me a river of tears for the resturant industry. do you realize that resturants are exempt from the minimum wage and most of them pay in the 2-3 per hour range? you want to try to live on that and then when you have the oppertunity to get some health care you employer conspires to screw...

sounds like you had a "wow i didnt know that" moment so you threw out a red herring just to make yourself feel good.

the penalty for doing nothing is like less than 2000 per year. that is what they will do. So, basically, you're looking at penalties of approximately the following at the following income levels: Less than $9,500 income = $0 $9,500 - $37,000 income = $695 $50,000 income = $1,000...

dennies is going to go through the trouble of dealing with 2 employees instead of one to save less than $1 per hour and screw their employee out of a benefit that will make him a better more loyal employee?

its a bluff. employers dont cut employees hours if they have the business to service. if they dont have the business they will cut hours no matter what.

i detected this same ignorance in some of the righties on et in debates before the election: For whatever reason, an article titled "Investors Rush to Beat Threat of Higher Taxes" was published by The New York Times despite the fact that it contains a galling bit of stupidity, which could...

I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours. --Stephen F Roberts

of course the rest of the world we dont care about. its america that is throwing off the yoke of mental bondage called religion. what do you think happens when the older more superstitious generation dies off?: Belief In God Plummets Among Youth The younger generation is abandoning God in...

all the christian preachers were claiming god wanted obama defeated, were they lying? what evidence do you have for a god?

could be. but that would leave only three logical conclusions. 1. satan works for god 2. god wanted obama elected 3. there is nothing up there.

the tea party in a nutshell: "Don't you let the government get a hold of my Medicare!" It was meant to be a funny anecdote: Medicare, which provides health coverage to the elderly and disabled, is of course a huge government program. " premium support schemes are attempts of lowering...

i would give me great satisfaction to be the one to have saved them from a life of mental bondage. Beliefs should be a search for truth and understanding, not denying reality so you can have faith in a compendium of books written by unknown authors over hundreds and hundreds of years...

Graham: God Will Judge America For Re-Electing Obama Through Economic Collapse hello. earth to franklin graham. before the election all of christianity was praying for god to not let obama be reelected. obama won in a landslide. that only leaves two logical conclusions. 1. god wanted obama...

not at this time. i think it will lead there. the states are supposed to set up exchanges under obama care. most of them are refusing to do so and handing off the obligation to the feds. that will make it much easier to implement single payer when the time is right.

we cant. republicans will not allow it. obamacare is the best that was able to squeek through the legislative process. pretty much everyone knows that single payer is the best answer but it is not a realistic expectation under the current political realities. "Don't Let the Perfect Be the...
