Las Vegas business owner fires 22 ‘mostly Hispanic’ employees over Obama win | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 26202851 United States 11/08/2012 05:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My rent has been raised because my landlord said that the tax increase for his business with a Obama re election would force him to raise the rent. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5795678 This is only the beginning. Everything is going to cost more and unemployment will skyrocket. all the freeloaders who think they will get free health insurance from their employer will not only not have ins but they won't have a job either. These dumb fuck libs get the govt they deserve, too bad the intelligent half of the country has to suffer with them i bet once the law is fully realized, there are provisions in the bill to keep this from happening. Bet the employers will have to pay a hefty tax for each employee they fire just to help out in keeping their free healthcare for a year. Yeah right idiot....employers can hire and fire whomever they want. They were warned of layoffs 30 days in advance, and they got laid off...end of story |

And so there will be mass firings before that provision goes into effect, with people being rehired as part-time such that this doesn't apply. I see it coming, Obama's second term will be hell for the working class esp. those covered by affirmative action, as employers take precautions to stay in the clear of legal traps. Part time is way up as it is. Look at it this way, we are in a deflationary spin right now. Parttime is the way it is moving more and more. As firings and parttime increases, the less volecity through the system. Which will result in more companies going out of business and putting their employees on part time. Free health care will have a minut affect. |

I'll bet he fired the one he thought voted for Obama. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26756963 I'll also bet they were young American born who wore their Obama shirts on purpose to say "fuck you fire me Bitch"! I applaud those young Americans who wore their Obama shirts to work anyway. So you applaud them for (you suspect) being among those getting fired! Yes that worked out well for them. Seems to me that it shows bad business judgment to wear political slogans supporting a policy that is bad for the business in the view of the business owner. Very bad and disrespectful to boot. They should have been fired regardless. Being most of the employees are Hispanic I suspect he's a cheap chiseling employer so they shouldn't have much trouble replacing him. |

There are quite a few countries which have tried this tactic, and it backfires terribly If you raise the barrier to employment too high, the result is few employers take the risk of hiring someone... ...they won't even hire part tiem workers for the holidays because they are afraid of the consequences of firing them the end result is they over work the few employees they have and are extremely hesitant to hire so try again |

Fire people so that MORE of them apply for public assistance so that you are doing MORE of what you're bitching about - supporting people who can't support yourself. Then, as the government has to support more and more people and the nation becomes more socialist, and MORE people vote Democrat because voting Republican means that their kids will go hungry, you can bitch even louder that you perpetuated the cycle that you claim to deplore. OR, you could do the reasonable thing - suck it up like big kids, employe people and GROW your business, which will enable a larger segment of the population to earn enough money to pay what you consider 'fair taxes' as well as contribute to the economy, thus growing your business further and increasing your income. Of course, Republicans only SAY they care about growing the economy and that this is why they support the policies that they support. In reality, they care only about themselves and remaining at the top of society while everyone else lives lives of want and need. Trust me, this dude is going to get hit with a discrimination lawsuit and be out far more money than he ever would have had he not thrown a temper tantrum like the entitled, elitist Republican pig he so clearly is... |

I don't like Obama at all, but we really had no way to win in this election. If Romney had won the working class would have been kicked to the curb and the country would be in worse shambles than it is now. We at least have a sort of fighting chance with the illegal immigrant in office, we know what to expect from him and can prepare. |

You assume (almost certainly wrongly) that he hasn't been focused on GROWING his business ever since he's had it. And imposing extra costs is generally unlikely to make it grow bigger. Does that make any intuitive sense to you? What grounds for a discrimination lawsuit? Some of his employees showed poor business judgment, and due to political events he saw his costs going up. So he fired those who showed poor judgment and laid off a few more to right-size the business for the new political environment. |
