ObamaCare Already Killing Jobs

October 9th, 2012 Leave a comment Go to comments

A lesson liberals demonstrate a continuous refusal to learn is cropping up again: the law of unintended consequences. That their policies so frequently do more harm than good is deemed irrelevant because their intentions were good.

Before ObamaCare was rammed through Congress, conservatives warned that it would hurt workers, costing both income and jobs. Those warnings were, of course, ignored. Those smart and compassionate folks on the Left know better than we mean, dumb conservatives—and the bulk of Americans—do.

Chickens meet roost.

The Darden family of restaurants has announced that it is cutting workers’ hours to stay under the 30 hour per week trigger built into ObamaCare—above which employers are required to provide government-approved health insurance or pay hefty fines.

Liberals can’t say we didn’t warn you. But you’re also not likely to care enough to accept the responsibility. It just felt like the “right thing to do.” Of such is the road to hell paved.
