Wal-Mart Dumping Their Healthcare expense onto the Taxpayer......

Wal-Mart just announced their 30,000 part time employees would be losing their health insurance.

As I stated before, the entire point of Obama Care is to end employer provided healthcare. Obama Care provides the framework for that to happen. As we see, it is happening.

In 2009 Wal-Mart supported President Obamas plan for Obama Care. Many employers were against the idea, but Wal-Mart was a big cheerleader. Wonder why…..

At the time Wal-Mart bragged about how companies should be forced to provide healthcare. Wal-Mart worked hard to portray themselves as the good guy…..looking out for the workers.

To Wal-Mart’s glee Obama Care did pass.

In 2013 it became noticeable that Wal-Mart was only hiring part time workers. If you wanted a full time job, don’t apply at Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart was only hiring part time….Huh, I wonder why……

This week it became obvious why, as all their part time employees were told they were on their own.

The good news is because Wal-Mart pays so poorly, and because their workers are all part time…… they would be eligible for Obama Care subsidies. So instead of Wal-Mart paying for their employees healthcare, now taxpayers can pick up the tab.

Corporations love when taxpayers pick up the tab. It is the best! Wal-Mart couldn’t be happier. Their plan (to dump their expenses on the taxpayer) took a few years but was finally realized.

Once again the worker (and the taxpayer) get screwed.
