I think Obamacare was designed to accommodate it and give an additional incentive to do it.

I’m saying the ACA was a bad bill that was never intended to help anyone but insurance companies. We shouldn’t be shocked that it includes workarounds for other businesses. Of course it does. Obama and the others who passed it knew that when they passed it. Thats why they wrote it that way.
Someone born in 1949 would not have to fight in a war that ended when they were 4 years old.
Obamacare includes a minimum hour exemption and it should have been obvious to the authors of the bill that employers would cut hours to hit that mark.

61·3 天前But shouldn’t Trump be impeached
Of course he should. And if we’d set a precedent back then by holding Bill Clinton accountable maybe it would be easier to do that nowadays. That’s my entire point. Did you even read my post or did you just immediately kneejerk go into “what about” mode?

Assuming he carries the same gun as them I guess. Mags aren’t universal.

I think it came down to 2 moments
Trump getting shot in the head then standing up, raising his fist and yelling “fight!”. I dispise the man and even I thought that was badass.
Biden at the debate. He was clearly sunsetting in front of our eyes, rambling about golf scores and saying “and by the way” over and over like it was his mantra.
If Biden had stepped down and endorsed harris from the beginning, idk if trump could have pulled off a win.
