Huddling around an Annapolis conference room table last week, a group of employment managers tried to school themselves on health benefits changes that are coming soon.
The federal health care law - the Affordable Care Act - will require employers with at least 50 workers to provide affordable health care to all full-time employees or pay a penalty.
But even though these managers work on employee benefits for a living, they looked baffled.
“What constitutes a 'full-time employee'?” one manager asked. For that matter, what counts as “affordable health care?” asked another.

I plan to lay employees off, don't want to but I have to, they will become Obamas problem then he can shower them with entitlements.
4:26 is full of baloney.
I've always purchased my own health insurance. I feel my employers duty was only to just give me a job-period. Plus I'm fiecely independant and that employee group insurance stuff didnt' and doesn't suit me. Thank you very much but I will choose my own plan to suit me and I'll pay for it myself. I'm not a group I'm my own person and I know what suits me and no one will tell me otherwise.

Health insurance is relatively inexpensive. It's a matter of priorties. It was in the early
1980's that I started on my then Blue Cross policy. It was around $70/month. It crept up to $126 and was that for years up until recently was now raised to $180 thanks to Obamacare. It's excellent coverage. I've not ever paid anything out of pocket and it offers alot of yearly/biyearly tests such as EKG that I don't even use.
