Obamacare could force THOUSANDS of volunteer fire departments to close

[Jeff]

More good news about Obamacare :rolleyes: every time you open the paper ya see another problem with Obamacare, one has to wonder why they didn't see these problems before, unless of course it is all part of the bigger plan ;)





The Affordable Care Act forces companies with more than 50 workers to buy them all health insurance or pay hefty fines
The IRS says volunteer firefighters are 'employees,' even though the Department of Labor says they're 'volunteers'
Out of more than 1 million fire departments in the U.S., 87 per cent are staffed entirely or mostly by life-saving volunteers
Members of Congress are weighing in, but the Obama administration hasn't taken any action yet to carve out a fire-fighting exception

Then those jobs can be replaced with UNION goons, taxes go up of the citizens, and more campaign donations flow into the DNC

Looks like a plan to me Jeff

... one has to wonder why they didn't see these problems before...

Because Congress, as an institution, is stupid. And Dems, as a party, are stupid-er.

While it is funny Jeff, sadly so many voters fell for it TWICE

Well, this is good news! It means that all those 'volunteer' firefighters who are now 'employees' suddenly can be counted and contribute to the 'jobs created' numbers. Unemployment numbers go down even more. Isn't that just grand?

But wait, I have to ask: If a volunteer firefighter who is really an employee gets laid off for wahtever reason, can they file for unemployment? Inquiring minds want to know!

Many people are now having the same reaction as the voters find out what is really in Obamacare

What also hasn't been mentioned are VOLUNTEER EMS/AMBULANCE squads.

Dialing 911 for a home emergency, other than for a fire, may now become almost impossible if you need Medical Help for...A HEART ATTACK AT HOME?

Wonder if OBAMACARE.....AKA.....ACA...had this in mind with those DEATH PANELS?
