The Company simply can't afford to put money towards my health care, as well as take on the extra burden of paying for the health care of others that don't work for the Company, as Obama is mandating. Something has to give -- and since I can't penalize my Company for dropping me, but Obama's IRS agents can penalize the Company for not paying for non-employees, then I'm the one that's going to be dropped.

Welcome to Socialism, Obama-style.
Sorry to hear this. People are going to be really surprised at the chaos this plan is going to cause. This is just the start.....
