Ironically the ones who will be impacted the most are the ones who voted for him. Ouch.

With the rumors of companies cutting back work hours of employees due to Obamacare, do you think there will be a sharp rise in unions in the United States?
Or do you see another option of companies requiring their employees to become independent contractors or the like to save on taxes, benefits, cost, etc.? Not tying to flame, just curious more than anything.

This. Part of the long term strategy, IMHO.

So I'm confused. With this be a positive or negative impact to their work life? It's very vague.

I guess if you are tired of full-time employment and want part-time hours and pay reductions, then it is a positive.
