BUT...
Many of my friends are being cut back on hours and having to find other part time jobs. They can not afford not to work. They are at a level that their insurance is almost completely subsidized but that does not increase their income. They are grateful that they now have insurance but still need to work every hour they can to survive.
Politics is not always a sweet pill to swallow.
