Small businesses prep for Obamacare

It's a comin'.
Some owners have begun to weigh strategies that might help them avoid complying with the law later on, such as opting out of providing the required coverage and instead paying a federal penalty of $2,000 for each full-time worker after the first 30.
Others have begun restructuring their businesses, reducing their employees' hours, for example, or trimming their total head counts to fewer than 50 full-time workers.
What!?!  Who saw that coming?  Oh yeah, everyone outside Nancy Pelosi's sphere of delusion.

This is the latest entry in the blame-Obamacare-for-everything parade. In reality, my sources say that part-time employment has increased 1.01% since 1983. Deal with the burn.

Then there's the Paul Ryan budget.

1.01% since 1983, 1.01% in March 2014, why quibble over details? Why even read?

Why even read? said...

Like most liberals, you lack the self-awareness to recognize when you're being lampooned.

Really? No duh?

Like all would-be conservative comedians, you think that a "Mad Libs" assortment of word associations is a premise. Stick to the superiority/victimization shtick; you guys are better at that.

Tongue, bra, twerk, tweet, wrecking ball, where are my clothes? This concludes my lampoon of Miley Cyrus. [Pause for laughter.]
