It's my contention here that by making it more expensive to pay overtime, the thinking from the faculty lounge directors is that they'll choose a new hire instead. (Yeah, I know......DUH??)
It's part of the game being played between the government and business owners...where a government believes you have the wherewithal to provide another person a job, but have chose to sit on your cash {profits} and ask a bit more of your team {slave workers}.
Meanwhile the business owner would be hiring like gangbusters if only Obamacare was repealed. Or even if a Republican controlled all three branches.
Most people would sit up and realize it's not working.
Trouble is, THEY DON'T CARE! They thrive on hard times.
We're just too stupid and cowered it seems....to even call them on it.
