The budget office analysis found that much of the law’s effect comes from reducing the need for people to take a full-time job just to get insurance coverage, and from the premium subsidies effectively bolstering household income.But it will also have an effect on businesses, the report said, including by encouraging them to reduce employee hours to avoid the so-called “employer mandate.” |

EXCELLENT!!These people were staying in the job market just because of the health insurance and not for the money. This will free up jobs for younger currently unemployed people. I'd already said that this was one of the advantages of universal health care. Why do you make this out to be a bad thing? Was it bad when millions of seniors left the job market after the creation of Social Security and Medicare? |

In other words,Prior to Obamacare: "I hate this job. I'm ready to retire. I have enough money saved. But I'm only 60 and won't be eligible for Medicare for another 5 years and won't be able to get insurance on my own due to my pre-existing condition. Guess I'm stuck here for another 5 years. Ugh!" With Obamacare: "I hate this job. I'm ready to retire. I have enough money saved. I'm only 60 and won't be eligible for Medicare for another 5 years. But, guess what? I checked healthcare.gov and I can get an affordable plan and can't be turned down because of my pre-existing condition. Thanks, Obama!" |

Gotta love the conservatard mind behind THIS hoohah. Here's what comes of it. Folks close to retirement age no longer have to work full time in order to have insurance before they're eligible for medicare. Companies that are even thinking of cutting back are going to die as their competitors eat their lunch when their quality of service goes in the shitter.Meanwhile, about 2 million people who are LOOKING for work are actually going to get a job. And the republicans are going to tell folks this is bad? LOL! PLEASE, republicans ... run with this one! :) |

To be fair, some news reports have made the same point that some might work less once they don't have to work for their medical benefits. Give them HEET, Food Stamps, an Obamaphone and Section 8 housing and they can almost stop working all together. BUT not of the liber-nazis here would mention the other side of the coin - all the Full Time jobs that'll become part time jobs. I guess they just didn't read the entire report. |

I guess you missed the part about the employers who are expected to kick their employees from full time to part time status so that they don't have to provide coverage. Well what do they matter, anyway?I guess you missed the part about what actually happened. Turn off the radio. Stick to trains ------------ The Myth That Obamacare Is Destroying Full-Time Jobs Just Got Debunked Business Insider By Steven Perlberg According to the BLS household survey, part-time jobs fell 594,000 in September while full-time workers were up 691,000. This was one hopeful nugget in an otherwise lackluster jobs report. Workers are considered to be "part time" if they work under 35 hours a week. Earlier this summer, when part-time numbers looked like they might be on the rise, some speculated that the shift was due to the employer mandate in the Affordable Care Act. Under Obamacare, employers will be required to offer health insurance or face penalties (the White House recently announced it will delay enforcement until 2015). Some companies have said they will reduce their full-time staff to below the 50-employee threshold as a result, or simply shave back full-timers' hours. "If the health law were driving employers to cut employees’ hours, the most vulnerable workers would likely be those working just above the 30-hour cutoff," writes the Wall Street Journal's Ben Casselman. "That means the data would show a decline in those working 30 to 34 hours and an increase in those working less than 30 hours." He explains: That isn’t what’s happening. The share of part-timers who say they usually work between 30 and 34 hours at their main job has been roughly flat over the past three years, at about 28%. (September data aren’t yet available.) If anything, it’s actually risen in the past year, though the change has been minor. The share working just under 30 hours has indeed risen somewhat, but the share working under 25 hours has fallen—suggesting that employers are giving part-timers more hours, rather than cutting full-timers’ hours back. Put another way: If the Labor Department used the same definition of “part-time” as the health law, its data would show no increase in part-time work over the past year. Check out the chart showing that part-time workers as a share of total workers has, if anything, actually gone down. |

Maybe. But here's what Business Insider actually said:"The CBO revised much of its outlook on the Affordable Care Act in a new report released Tuesday. It said that much of the loss would come from workers choosing to provide less labor, not from employers deciding not to hire workers because of the law."

That's the whole thing, and always HAS been with part-time. You bring in part-timers when the economy is shit, train them, settle them in and when things pick up, they go to full time "according to the needs of the business" ... this is only news to idiot republicans, it's worked this way for the last two hundred years! |

NYT:The report did say that the law would reduce hours worked and full-time employment, but not because of a crippling impact on private-sector job creation. With the expansion of insurance coverage, the budget office predicted, more people will choose not to work, and others will choose to work fewer hours than they might have otherwise to obtain employer-provided insurance. The cumulative reduction of hours is large: the equivalent of 2.5 million fewer full-time positions by 2024, the budget office said. The report “rightfully says that people shouldn’t have job lock,” said Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democratic leader. “We live in a country where we should be free agents. People can do what they want.” He continued: “Republicans talk about losing millions of jobs. That simply isn’t true.” |

CBO Report:‘no compelling evidence that part-time employment has increased as a result of the A.C.A.’ Who didn't read it now? |

Only in conservative RetardoLand is this a bad thing. Too bad the survey doesn't also include the millions of more people who will leave their jobs and start their own business knowing that they, their spouses and children will no longer need their hated former employer just to physically stay alive. |

Sen.Reid is correct. Add to that the typical change-denial of the RW, and you blather about lost jobs when the actual result is changed jobs, but jobs nonetheless. |
