During a Google Hangout session on Friday, fry cook Darnell Summers told President Obama that his hours were cut due to the Affordable Care Act. “We were broken down to part time to avoid paying health insurance,” he said. Summers explained that he makes $7.25 an hour and has been on strike four times seeking a wage increase. “We can’t survive, it’s not livin’,” he said.
The president responded by urging states to increase the minimum wage. “I am working to encourage states, governors, mayors, state legislators to raise their own minimum wage,” Obama said. “Obviously, the way to reach millions of people would be for Congress to pass a new federal minimum wage law. So far, at least, we have not seen support from Republicans for such a move.”
The president did not address Summers’s comments about the healthcare law.
Ask him who he voted for and WHY!
So...develop your talents and skills and find a better job!
Queue Charlie Browns teacher: “Wah....wah wah...wah.
Darnell better watch himself. Some crack and a throwdown gun suddenly appears, and he will be cooking in prison.
Great! Then you can get ZERO hours per week! What a deal!
Here comes your audit, Darnell.
Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pay him $20 an hour and he really won’t “be livin”. F’n loser, whiner should look for other work. And study history and economics before he votes again.
So, get another SSN then he can do 58 hrs. Obama has what, four?
“The president did not address Summers’s comments about the healthcare law.”
But he did. His employer will be forced to raise his salary. When the employer then lays him off, and he can’t find another job, remaining taxpayers will be forced to support him. Problem solved.
I want to look at it this way, this guy is working rather than sitting at home on his duff. Yeah he probably bought the crap from the MSM or he voted for O dumbo based on race alone but he does have a job. My biggest beef is the large number of leaches out there who not only voted for the POS but whom also want all the bennies plus free health care which they mistakenly believe was on the way.
That’s how liberals think. They really think that businesses have infinite money and can afford to give more to employees. Liberals really want CEO’s to make no more than 8 times the amount of the lowest paid employee. Yes.
This guy will be in a gulag somewhere by weeks end....for questioning Dear Leader...
Fox News fault
Right... the man is working, all he wants is full-time employment!

Obama Logic: Would you rather have a $7.50/hour full time job or a $10.00/hour part time?
7.50 X 40 = $300.00 a week
10.00 X 29 = $290.00 a week.
So yeah. Raise the minimum wage. Just know they will be taking home LESS money. And as an extra added insult, they won’t have full time benefits including group medical insurance, so the poor slobs will have to endure ObamaCare.
He should get a food truck and be his own boss. If he’s good at frying, the market can never get enough fried food.
Great point!....................
