Obamacare Could Force Thousands Of Volunteer Fire Departments To Close

Obamacare Could Force Thousands Of Volunteer Fire Departments To Close
Volunteer fire departments all across the U.S. could find themselves out of money and unable to operate unless Congress or the Obama Administration exempts them from the Affordable Care Act.
‘I thought the kinks were worked out of Obamacare at the first of the month, Central Florida volunteer firefighter Carl Fabrizi told Sunshine State News. ‘Man, oh, man, this could potentially destroy some real good companies in Florida.’
The U.S. Department of Labor takes the term ‘volunteer’ literally, but the IRS says volunteer firefighters are technically employees if they’re on the job more than 30 hours per week, making them subject to Obamacare’s employee-mandate rules.


Wild Thing’s comment.…………
Obamacare will effect every American’s life one way or another.

TomR,armed in Texas says:

obama will kill every aspect possible of functional traditional America.

Willy says:

71% of firefighters and emergency squad members are volunteers. If volunteer fire fighters and EMS are no longer permitted, communities will have to hire personnel-those that can afford it. The end game will be more gov’t employees who can be unionized. If you live somewhere where full-time gov’t employees are not affordable, than your house can burn down or you can die because you cannot get to the hospital. The failures of Obamacare keep peeling off like the layers of an onion…
