Looks like the RW is terrified that Obamacare seems to be working.. Too funny!
Where is the working part of Obamacare? I must of missed it. Are you talking about employers stopping to Kay healthcare because of huge increase in costs because of Obamacare causing their employees to collect government subsidies that are payed for my other tax payers? Is that success?
Why do the right thing when you can offload folks onto the government? No brainer on Wegmans part.
Exactly what many of us said would happen when this thing was being shoved down our throats in the first place. Now the liberals are scrambling for excuses and how much more wonderful it will all be to be handed off to the government so we can all pay for it instead of the folks employers contributing to it. When the cluster comes to fruition THEY will all declare THEY can fix it of course. LOL

I bet if you just asked those folks who were told they were getting their healthcare taken away not one of em would be cheering about how it's working so well.
'However, part-time employees may actually benefit from Wegmans’ decision, according to Brian Murphy, a partner at Lawley Benefits Group, an insurance brokerage firm in Buffalo.
“If you have an employee that qualifies for subsidized coverage, they might be better off going with that than a limited part-time benefit,†Murphy said.
That’s because subsidized coverage can have a lower out-of-pocket cost for the insured employee while also providing better benefits than an employer-paid plan.
Under the Affordable Care Act, part-time employees are not eligible for health insurance subsidies if their employer offers insurance.
“It’s a win-win. The employee gets subsidized coverage, and the employer gets to lower costs,†Murphy said.'
And just who is footing the bill for that "subsidy" now ?
It was supposed to be the employers but they got a 2 year reprieve.
Those people will be paying extra so others get it for free.
Then why are there millions of people who will not be paying more because they will not havve insurance and will be exempt from the individual mandate?

And....the taxpayers take a big one right up the poop chute. Bend over....this is gonna hurt
It's a lose-lose just like anything Obama conceives.

If your definition of working is making more people more dependent on the .gov and redistribution of wealth then it seems to be working perfectly. It's a freekin' scream, mahhn!
