Papa John's CEO: My Obamacare claims were twisted

Back when Obama care was first proposed wasn't it Caterpillar that publicy stated that this was going to hurt business? Then the CEO retracted his statement after some WH arm twisting.

I thought for sure it was Caterpillar and right after Obama's visit.
 
However you lay out Obama care, one of the reasons GM failed is by providing health care to it's employees. lesson not learned. So now the Fed has extrapolated the cause of failure from just one company onto all companies.

We are already seeing "loophole's" aka waivers being granted. The ink is still wet on the page.

The "loophole's" and "waivers" shoot a giant hole right thru Free Thinker's argument about all employers being on level ground.

It reminds me of all the debate about the Financial Transaction Tax...of course, in the fine details, there are also quite a few loophole's to keep the "Friends of the Kremlin" in their position of crony power.
 
Quote from mrbill:

All businesses do what they have to do to stay in business. Some are cutting to 30 hours per week, in a ploy to try to save money. If they find that they lose valuable employees, then they will have revert back to normal business practices. All this hyperbole over such basic business decisions, I just don't see why. We, who have to deal with a few hundred employees usually figure things out. However, I have to admit, the last few months dealing with the Euro reg's have been a bit much on my psyche.

Valuable employees don't get cut to 30 hours a week.

Additionally, that kind of work in this economy is easy to replace. Plenty of folks out there who want that work. What you supporters of big government, OBamacare, etc just cannot seem to grasp is that business will find a way to defeat government regulation within the construct of the law, because business's only master is to profit, and that master is unforgiving.

Every single other argument you put forth returns to this one, inarguable point. The only way to escape that point is to nationalize everything, and remove profit as a master.

We don't support big government and it's good we don't have one.

It was, but Obama also warned Pat Quinn away from a tax hike here as well. Cat was talking about leaving.

I was thinking the same thing. Lil' Ricky Retard has become a real drunk here lately.
