A survey shows that three quarters of all small businesses still plan to fire workers and cut hours in 2014 to avoid Obamacare, even though the Obama administration says it will not enforce the law unitl 2015.

This makes sense. The law is still the law, even if the Obama administration won’t enforce it. If a business doesn’t cut the hours or the number of its workers to avoid the Obamacare mandates, but then does not provide those mandates, its employees can then sue the business and likely win.
The result: Expect the economy to tank next year as this turkey of a law takes hold and chokes the life out of American enterprise.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Another unintended consequence is competition for hours.
Say there is one worker and right now and they work 35-40 hours a week depening on the work that needs to be done. Well, now another worker needs to be hired to do 5-10 hours of work.
The second worker wont be happy with 5-10 hours. So now, the workers compete for the 40 hours of work. Will the first worker still work 30 hours a week or will some of their hours go to the new worker? Most likely, the first worker will see their hours cut well below 30 and the new worker wont be working 5-10 hours but 20.
Why the people of America are allowing a government that has demonstrated that they do not have their best interest in mind and are actually doing things counter to their interest and the Constitution that they have sworn to up hold to continue on this road is way beyond me.
The people of America have been sold down the river, paddles not included.
Evolution?
Devolution?
Choose one and explain.
Besides the possibility of employee lawsuits, employers ought to comply with the new law in 2014 for one other reason :
This administration decides which laws to enforce seemingly based upon the politics of the moment. They could just as easily decide to enforce the law again at any moment just to “punish” any perceived political opponents.
It’s sad that a President would treat the citizens of his own country with such disregard, but this is what we’ve got.
It is time for the state governments to step up and refuse to comply with this monstrosity. If enough states choose to do this, the entire program would collapse — much to the shame of the GOP leadership in Congress, which has had the power all along to stop Obamacare in its tracks by refusing to fund it.
The Republicans would never do that, they don’t want to be perceived by “out of registration” Hispanics (illegal aliens working in the U.S.A. expecting to be further empowered by granting them citizenship and a vote). So expect it to continue.
