Cleanup on Aisle 1917!
WHAM-TV in Buffalo, NY:
Note how Samantha Maziarz Christmann of the Buffalo News leads off by blaming the victim:
Et tu, Wegmans?
The Rochester-based grocer that has been continually lauded for providing health insurance to its part-time workers will no longer offer that benefit.
Until recently, the company voluntarily offered health insurance to employees who worked 20 hours per week or more. Companies are required by law to offer health insurance only to full-time employees who work 30 hours or more per week.
Several Wegmans employees confirmed part-time health benefits had been cut and said the company said the decision was related to changes brought about by the Affordable Care Act.
No, call it what it is: Obamacare.
They don’t want to call it that, as disaster looms, but that’s what it is. It’s called Obamacare. He owns this. It’s not Wegmans’ fault, or the fault of any of the other businesses that are going to suffer. This is all on Obama. And the worse it gets, the more the press will try to cover for him.
But hey, you can’t make an omelette without breaking a few businesses that sell eggs!

P.S. Doug Powers has the line of the day: “Obamacare may result in a shortage of medical doctors, but it is creating an abundance of spin doctors.”
