Bro-in law divorcing my sister because she voted Obama! Obamacare could shut him down :(

And yeah, people don't know how much it's gonna hurt businesses...

A LOT... AND I MEAN A LOT of businesses are gonna close shop in 2013...


IMO unemployment will be at least 10%+ officially (unless they cook the numbers really hard) at the end of 2013.

She has a job, she does hair/manicures but she pretty much took that up for the social part of it. She only makes about $30K a year herself and pretty much was happy to live off her husband. That's why I can't understand why she voted in a manner that would hurt her husband's business, even if her one vote didn't affect the outcome. By the way, he's not the kind if guy to demand she do anything. He's angry because he knew that SHE knew how Obamacare would hurt the company, which would not only hurt him and her, but his workers. He's really upset about having to cut people, but he has no choice.

LOL! I see the reading comprehension of liberals on this board is a abysmal as anywhere else.

Nowhere did I say that Obamacare provides anything. I said it was an opening gambit to a long-term strategy of socializing US health care.

Learn to read before attacking others for making sense.

Of course, you being a liberal, your brain is impervious to facts and the truth, so not sure what learning to read would actually do for you. But you could always give it a go.

Sounds like she considers Obama to be her husband.

No thats fucking stupid. So is he going to ask every woman he dates who she voted for?

I can relate to this thread because my brother has publicly stated that he disowns any family member or friend who voted for Obama. This is tearing the family apart because he verbally attacked my oldest son because he "assumed" that he would vote Obama. .

Really, you are going to tell your life long partner you have a slight fear they may take your money and run?

If the person fears it might be a possibility, DO NOT GET MARRIED YET!!!!

lol

And a pre-nup so she gets nothing? Don't she have a job??

I am in Norway, working on a project that would bring over 400 manufacturing jobs to the Florida panhandle area.

We have been since the election seriously considering not doing the project in the U.S. From being here I see what happens in a socialist run economy. Our investors are not interested in getting caught in that trap nor am I.

It is obvious that Obama is going to make it extremely difficult for employers and run labor costs through the roof.
I think the man hates America and is intent on destroying it so I am sure things are going to get a lot worse before they get better.

1932 Germany all over again.

Only 3 states have unemployment rates below 10%, Nebraska, Noth and South Dakota...National rate is 14-17%

First of all thank God they don't have kids.

My sister has always been an entitled sort of person, learned that from our parents. They spoiled us. I had the sense to figure out the real world isn't like that.

She married a really good guy who owns a machine shop. He employs 57 people including office staff. He has made plans for a "what if" in case Obama was re-elected, he was pulling for Romney. Obama won and now he's at plan B, and he will have to let 8 people go before the end of the year to avoid the new Obamacare fines/taxes since his employees don't have insurance.

Now before you hate on this man, understand that after paying all his employees, expenses, taxes, maintenance, and upkeep/new equipment he clears about $140,000 per year. Some years more, some less. In the last 10 years he says his actual pay/salary fluctuated between $80K and $190K depending on contracts and business.

The cost of insuring his employees would be about $350,000 for a minimum basic plan. That would put him in the red even before himself taking a salary. He would have to close shop. If he paid the $2500 per employee fine that kicks in for employers with 50 or more employees, he would pay a fine/tax of $110,000. Meaning his expected take home salary/profit would be anywhere from a net loss of $30K to a positive salary of only $80K - the latter only if he has a banner year.

He is unwilling to take a chance with his own livelihood and gas already informed his employees of the coming cuts - two office personnel, and six machinists. They are upset but they understand his reasoning. Even the handful of Obama supporters at his shop seemed to suddenly "get it" o cw the reality hit them, that they could lose THEIR job because of Obamacare.

Which brings me to my sister.

My bro-in-law has had conversations with me, and with her, about how Obamacare will quite literally hurt his business and/or his ability to grow the company. He found out that she voted for Obama when he overheard her talking to a friend about the election. At first he was nonchalant about it, and asked her why and she told him "well it's good that he wants to help people".

After stewing over it a few days, he changed the locks while she was at work and put her stuff in a Uhaul truck. When she got home he had already had an attorney file divorce papers and since they had a pre-nup, she gets nothing.

I am having a hard time because I can't really blame him, but I love my sister. Although I cannot understand for the life of me why she would vote in a way that was so contrary to her personal interests.

Not sure what to think.

hope she enjoys her lowered lifestyle!

I support the action taken by the OP. No obama (vile deceiver) supporter will ever be helped again by myself. That goes for family members also. Sometimes you have to draw a line when extremist threaten the nations very existence. It is time liberals pull their own weight.

seems to me HE is well shed of her

I understand the brother in law could be mad about something like that, but divorce because of just that? Had to be something else too brewing and muddying up their marriage..

Your bro in law sounds like a real loser, she wll be better off without him!

Yep, otherwise it's just poor character on his part. He can be mad but her 1 vote didn't put him out of business so this is just a baby pouting cause his toy was taken away so he's lashing out at anyone he doesn't agree with. Lot's of that going on since Obama has been in office.

There had to be some other things as well, if not, then I agree, she's well rid of him.

You are one dumb fuck. It's HIS business. He provides jobs. It's not his obligation to provide health insurance, you little cretin.

SHE...is well rid of....HIM?!?

What kind of Idiot are you??? Did you not READ what (OP) post?
