IBD's list of both public and private-sector employers cutting work hours or staffing levels as a result of the employer mandate now totals 388.

Surfs up. Not living in the US watching this proceed is somewhat weird since its like watching a gargantuan train wreck happen in slow motion. I just wish the best for most freepers and they somehow avoid most of the damage.

Well, some of us have children to worry about too . . . even if they’re not yet wise enough to be FReepers.

Make that Republicans that are sabotaging Obamacare. (How? We’ll never know and it doesn’t make any difference as long as the left is the victim.)
