Employers have been steady dropping benefits since the 70s. They will continue this trend. All employers are well aware of the Walmart strategy and have been headed in that direction for some time.
Wal-Mart provides benefits for their employees. May not be grand but it's better than nothing.

What benefits? List them please. Also list the cost. Saying to someone making 8 bucks an hour that they can pay 80% of that for benefits doesn't count.
And Obama believes you should pay for your health care and other people's health care too.
What is it with you people? You pay now for everyone anyway. Medicare, medicaid, VA, not to mention insurance companies operate on the principle that large groups contribute to cover those premium payers in need of benefit.
There is health insurance if you want to buy it regardless if you are employed or not.... What you really want to say is that you should have health insurance and not have to pay it...
Group coverage is a whole lot different than independent coverage. Read up.
Criticism of Walmart - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 2011, Walmart stopped providing health insurance for part-time employees working under 24 hours per week. In 2013, health insurance benefits will not be available to employees who work fewer than 30 hours per week
What it amounts to is give US single payer. Its not that hard to understand. Yes the ACA is crap. President Obama never wanted it to begin with so stop with this BS. You all act like HC was just buzzing along just fine and Obama just came along and ruined it. Just admit you had a Cadillac plan and didn't care if others got HC or not.
Do you have a link stating exactly what Obama wanted? I remember him being very noncommittal to saying what exactly he wanted. He passed the buck to Congress as usual.
His 2008 campaign was financed by nice contributions from health insurers and drug manufacturers. That is why they got a seat at the table on Obamacare negotiations and got their wet dream in Obamacare: 30 million new customers, most subsidized by Uncle Sam!

We need single payer. Thats what President Obama wanted all alone. ACA is compromise because of Republicans.
This bill was not a result of the republicans...they were shut out...remember, try really hard...you can do it. The dems were testing the polls and came up with this crap of a bill and it is a win win for the insurance companies. But just think for one moment if single payer did go into effect and all those insurance companies went belly up how many people would be added to the unemployment rolls. So baby steps.
