After reviewing Staples' balance sheet and income statement, $5Au concludes Staples would be out of business if they tried to do what Dear Leader demands.

Obama sounds like a Communist. I also think the CEO is full of crap. It is most likely the reduced hours are a direct response to the ACA and he should just say so. This law is a disaster for the middle class.

Is Obama that stupid? I fear not

Good for Staples

They aren't the only ones doing it by any stretch either.

Health insurance used to be part of a benefit package used to attract employees. Once it becomes a mandated requirement, a company has every right to use any out the law allows.

They are in business to make a profit, not help politicians get a nice mention in the history books.

No one should go gentle into yet another power grabbing destructive government insurance scam.

Shame only works very short term, if at all. People offering to get more done at a company that pays more is the only long term approach. Shame is at best a laughable political ploy.
