You’re Half-Fired! Here’s some evidence to support the suggestion that Obamacare = Part-Time work (as employers cut back hours to avoid the Affordable Care Act’s pay-or-play mandate for full time–30 hour–employees). … P.S.: At least the recent BLS data didn’t show a massive increase in involuntary part-time employment. ….Oh, wait.
