Every day, it becomes more apparent President Obama and his liberal allies have led this country in the wrong direction, as Obamacare continues to afflict middle-class Americans’ hopes of economic growth and job stability.
Lisa Bernard-Kuhn of The Cincinnati Enquirer (published in USA Today) reminds us that as small businesses try to grapple with compliance with Obamacare, “many are holding off on new investments.” This directly impacts workers. “Some businesses also are capping part-time workers to fewer than 30 hours a week. Others are holding off on new hires altogether while they assess the impact,” notes Bernard-Kuhn.
With such disastrous effects, it’s no wonder that Obamacare faces such strong opposition from the American people. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation’s new poll, Obamacare’s approval is still underwater, and 53 percent of independents oppose the law. By contrast, only 31 percent of independents support the law.
Additionally, only 33% of respondents said that the country as a whole is better off as a result of Obamacare.
Hardworking American families deserve better than a law that limits their hours or freezes their prospects of getting hired. Conservatives must continue to show that they are on the side of the American people.
