Chicago Cubs cut grounds crew’s hours to avoid paying health benefits — sources

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

Thanks a lot, Obama.

Add the Affordable Care Act – or, specifically, the big-business Cubs’ response to it – to the causes behind Tuesday night’s tarp fiasco and rare successful protest by the San Francisco Giants.

The staffing issues that hamstrung the grounds crew Tuesday during a mad dash with the tarp under a sudden rainstorm were created in part by a wide-ranging reorganization last winter of game-day personnel, job descriptions and work limits designed to keep the seasonal workers – including much of the grounds crew – under 130 hours per month, according to numerous sources with direct knowledge.

That’s the full-time worker definition under “Obamacare,” which requires employer-provided healthcare benefits for “big businesses” such as a major league team.

How fitting, the town that gave us Barack Obama, Rahm Emanuel, Valerie Jarret , and William Daley-the ObamaCare team- is destroying Chicago jobs via ObamaCare regulations!
