Sand Springs, Oklahoma Couple Says They Were Fired To Offset Cost Of Affordable Care Act [View all]

Carl's Jr., Wendy's, Dunkin' Donuts, Baskin Robbins, and Taco Bell are looking to slash hours for employees to avoid paying health coverage for employees.

Seems this loophole is going to cause more problems as we get closer to mandatory health care being rolled out to everyone. Is it just a coincidence that Congress didn't consider businesses would just cut full time workers hours to avoid paying?
