Nah, just millions of more part-time employees.

It will be higher yet unless Obama transforms the economy.

shift update:
"Boehner indicated he has no firm plans to push for repeal of the Affordable Care Act, a law the GOP-led House has voted to abolish, dismantle or defund more than 30 times."
Boehner: 'ObamaCare is the law of the land'

Those companies will lose market share because their productivity will drop. More aggressive, smarter entrepreneurs will fill the void. That's the way things work. Too bad for the companies that have executives who are prone to tantrums.

Likely 25%
But President Obama has a cure... An idea steming from how Communist China deals with their People.
A look "FORWARD" to what will come is this.
As Executive Unitary President comes to be a reality.
Except it now or except it later but YOU WILL EXCEPT IT.
******* News Bulletin ********
As will be seen on all Televisions and Computers in America on December 25, 2016. at 8:00 PM.
We interrupt your usual programing tonight for a message from your Executive Unitary, President Barack H Obama.
Unitary Executive, President Barack H. Obama looks somberly into the camera and reads the following Statement.
“As of January 1, 2017, by decree from the office of the Unitary Executive President, Barack H. Obama Those who are collecting ANY form of Government assistance, State or Federal Level MUST call the following number by January 3, 2017, XXX XXX XXXX.
People now working in Private business will be required by Unitary Executive Presidential Order to call this number XXX XXX XXXX to report your Employer Identification Number and your Social Security number(s), number of dependents and phone number and address.â€
Unitary Executive President Barack H Obama continues to speak after a long silent pause.
“My plan to stop the ravages of the Gang Wars we face in America for over a year now, will fix America's Economy under the NEW Unitary Executive Presidency, Barack H Obama Administration Direction?
These Programs are Federal Funded and your incomes earned there will be tax free as all your and your Family’s needs will be met.
You will move into designated Industrial areas which you will be housed in "Workers Quarters" for 5 or 6 days a week as you work for your “Workers Wage†and “Workers benefits packagesâ€. Your food will be modest but healthy and will be free of charge as part of your “Workers wageâ€. Your “Workers Wage†will be $0.25 to $0.75 as per hour as the World market labor competition has dictated. As your generous benefits packages as I describe will make up the difference to the Federal “Minimum Wage standards as deemed “Fair and Equable†by myself as Executive Unitary President Barack H Obama.â€
You will have Minimum health care coverage as part of your "Workers wage" free of charge or tax.
If you have a Life partner and children they will be also covered but your Life Partner will be required "Workers hours†will be increased by two additional days per Month. (Saturdays)
Also as part of your Workers “Life Partner Packageâ€
Your Life Partner and children will be provided a daily dietary supplement package to cover your Life Partner and children who will work in either the "Workers Education" field or if you have a child in a "Workers Daycare" field for that coverage. They will be assigned a “Workers Rest Area†within that complex as you will be required to work in shifts to Educate and or Care for the Greater good of the "Workers†children as no child will be left behind."
Each Worker must follow strict guidelines set by those who will administrate the “Workers Industrial Complexes†which will include an Exercise and Better Health Program with requirements each work day.
As America is a free Country you can of course "OPT OUT" but any coverage’s by any Government agency State or Federal Levels will be denied you, your Life Partner and Children as you will have chosen to remove yourself from the prescribed "Workers Program" and will be seen as an “Outsider.â€
Additions to these rules will apply as deemed necessary under the Unitary President of the United Federal States of America.
You voted for more Socialism. Now you will get it.

Freedom Works? You mean the Dick Armey/Koch brothers right-wing astroturf organization? And Washington Times, the right-wing newspaper?
Wow, I really believe anything they say about Obamacare.
- Rob - 12-03-2012 04:32 PM
Leave it to FreedomWorks to rev up the propaganda machine. Dick Armey is the prototype republican voter: old, male, white and stupid.

Yes, get ready for double digit unemployment, double digit inflation, and double digit interest on loans.
Obama will make Carter look like Reagan in comparison.
