Cause and effect: Americans who voted for Obama now seeing weekly job hours slashed below 30 as Obamacare kicks in

It is the ultimate example of how you reap what you sow: Huge numbers of American workers who voted for Obama are now seeing their own jobs slashed below 30 hours a week as employers desperately try to avoid "Obamacare bankruptcy."

Obamacare mandates for businesses only apply to those working 30 hours a week or more, and while many businesses do not want to cut workers' hours, they are being forced to in order to stay afloat. This necessary action is causing businesses to lose money and become less competitive while at the same time destroying American jobs.

Some businesses are also slashing job positions in an effort to get below the 50-employee threshold above which Obamacare mandates kick in. So across the country, we're not only seeing workers lose hours thanks to Obamacare; we're also seeing workers losing their jobs.

It's time to wake up and realize what is happening. If not on your own, this economic collapse will wake everyone up.

The ugly death throes of the conservative dream


By Paul Krugman
Syndicated columnist
We are not having a debt crisis.

It’s important to make this point, because I keep seeing articles about the “fiscal cliff” that do, in fact, describe it — often in the headline — as a debt crisis. But it isn’t. The U.S. government is having no trouble borrowing to cover its deficit. In fact, its borrowing costs are near historic lows. And even the confrontation over the debt ceiling that looms a few months from now if we do somehow manage to avoid going over the fiscal cliff isn’t really about debt.

No, what we’re having is a political crisis, born of the fact that one of our two great political parties has reached the end of a 30-year road. The modern Republican Party’s grand, radical agenda lies in ruins — but the party doesn’t know how to deal with that failure, and it retains enough power to do immense damage as it strikes out in frustration.

Mr. Krugman would do well to temper his enthusiasm regarding the demise of the Republican party. Libs love to use words like-radical- unreasonable- unfair etc. Words with no meaning whatever. The Republican party has been around since Lincoln, and will be around long after the Democrats are brought to heel for their racist appeal to blacks and Latinos. Sooner or later they will run out of other peoples money.

You would do well to understand the Republican party is in ruins! They are still pushing the Ryan plan despite the fact 60% or more Americans are against it. Despite the fact that 30 years of crap talk about cutting taxes to create jobs never ever worked and never will! Despite the fact the majority of the deficit was run up by GWB with his two unpaid for wars and unpaid for tax cuts to the rich. Learn to look at all the facts not just the ones you seem to like!

So you are saying Socialism works?

Maybe but you actually believe Facism is the way to go? Apparently so!

There are so many definitions of Fascism.
One is that there is a dictator.....hmmm
None of the explanations of Fascism applies
to the Republican Party, as far as I see!
So my answer is NO!

What a choice, and neither is my choice.
To me they are very close.
Let's call a new party "Freedomism".
What's that, you say? It's something
we are losing, day by day, thanks to
you know who and his cohorts.....
And people who still believe in him!
