Casino Slashes Worker Hours to Avoid Obamacare Fines
25th September 2013
Hollywood Casino in Grantville, Pennsylvania has told its part-time workers that they may no longer work over 30 hours. The reason: Obamacare.
“Not the first, won’t be the last,” Gene Barr of the Pennsylvania Chamber of Business and Industry told WHTM-PA. “The casino is clearly one of many. We’re gonna see more and more of this.”
Todays reading is from Econ 101: If you raise the price of something, people will buy less of it. If you raise the price of having full-time employees, employers will cut back on the number of full-time employees to the level that they can afford.
How’s that Hope & Change working out for ya?
