Which doesn't make much sense. Removing Obamacare from the entire equation, it costs a hell of a lot more to hire, train, and maintain a workforce of 100 than 50, regardless of how many hours they work.

  - I'd rather pay the 15 cents. you know, if I liked pizza. -- nm - Sidney Appelbaum Oct 22, 14:37 2
    - I'd pay an extra 2 or 3 bucks if the pizza was actually good! -- nm - colin Oct 22, 14:38 1
