Due to ObamaCare, nation’s largest movie theater chain cuts employee hours

Due to ObamaCare, nation’s largest movie theater chain cuts employee hours. “In a memo to employees, management was blunt: ‘To comply with the Affordable Care Act, Regal had to increase our health care budget to cover those newly deemed eligible based on the law’s definition of a full-time employee.'” But aside from the lost jobs, skyrocketing premiums, etc, how’s it going so far?

  • Damn that free health care just cost a lot of people a great deal of money. Fools all. Until people realize that nothing is free, they will continue to be just sheep following the wolf all the way to bitter end.

  • Well remember that we had to wait for it to pass to know what was in it. Now we know and now we are going to pay through the nose. I read on Twitter that a Union that was Pro-Obamacare now wants it repealed. Obviously they heard from their members.

    • I have a question for you Jcrowley1985. Senator Paul is making plans to run for the republican nomination in16. Will you support him as much as you've backed his father?

      The senator is well liked here in KY. He has taken on the establishment of both parties, doing a very good job of slapping them all down as well as point out their hypocrisies. He beat McConnell hand picked candidate, put McCain in his place, made Reid and Schummer look like the fools they are.

      He backed the hemp bill here in KY. He has bemoaned the mandatory sentencing guidelines for non violent and 1st time offenders.
      I for one will work for the senator in order to get him elected.

    • Well my premiums were low before Obamacrapcare. now they more than doubled cause people like you who buy all the latest crap and not pay to take care of yourselves!!!!

      • Corporate success gives us computers and power to write to each other, and the ability to be at home in the middle of the day.

  • Ha Ha to all Obama voters who now cant afford gas for thier cars to get to two jobs!!!!!! wait til you have to heat your apt. next winter i do not feel sorry for you Obama told us he wanted to do all this before 2008. HELLO he was a senator you all ignored his record and own words.
