What amazes me, after four years, you'd think these people would have learned their lesson, but apparently they haven't. Now there is going to be a layoff bomb coming after January 1st. I don't know what it is about Progressives and economics, because on one side you have people that are completely emotional about economics. Good example is the online assault against Applebee's that I have been following, on Twitter, and they will not be hiring; many of their people are full time, they are going to have to lay off and hire part time. You are going to see this now, with many restaurants, including Red Lobster. That's right you communist liberals, like my father 'Lib Hater" told you, this will start in the service industry; you said he was fear mongering. Well, as you can see for yourselves, you butt puppets, it is now happening. Now I will have my say. What should be frightening is, the service industry has largely been replacing manufacturing jobs and has been an opportunity for young people to enter the work force; these aren't the only ones, these are just the high profile ones. Yes, you liberals should see the laundry list of Medical Device manufacturers that are also beginning to lay people off. FORWARD. Hope and Change to a Socialist Society that will only be for t...

Hope and Change to a Socialist Society that will only be for the Rich and Famous; I love it. Do not worry, liberals; you wanted this, and now you are going to get what you deserve. Now I'm looking at the feedback on Twitter from these stupid butt liberals writing, "you're rich, why can't you hire more people?" not even knowing how a business works. See liberals, a business works on two pieces of paper, now write this down. 1. Details cost. 2. Details revenue. If the government is adding to the cost, if government passes a new tax, creates a new regulation or labor law, guess what? The minute the cost outweighs revenue, you're out of business, or you have to make some changes to your portfolio in a business model to compensate; that can come from using cheaper materials, or not using premium products anymore, base products, and, yes ,,,,,,,,LAYING OFF PEOPLE. Everytime the government acts, there's an equal and opposite reaction in the business community. That's how it works, liberals. FORWARD? LMAO....Next lesson will be on Progressive economics. Here is a preview: We will print a little money here, and we will stimulate this side of the economy, we will move here and then we will move it there; wait it's not working, let's reshuffle it and move it around...ROTFLMAO at stupid progressives.

A mysterious interloper who flies a forked-tailed jump jet and flies into rock walls that turn out to be illusory couldn't have been more effective.
For those who work at large corps, most have been waiting for this and should be filing violations to the WARN Act (make Obama keep that campaign promise).
Those in smaller companies have already been working with a skeleton crew for years and most likely it will remain a skeleton crew just to tread water.
CA is so bad there are a dozen bankrupt cities in that one state, there's an exodus of emigrees to other more stable states.
Proud socialists, communists, marxists, black liberation theologists, la raza, uhuru, noi, etc. They're all in a classroom near you.
Welcome to hell, people.
Senior AARP loser tries to pay the doctor the difference b/t the doctor bill and the Medicare reimbursement: sorry you Florida lame asses! That's called "balanced billing" and it's against the law!
So you're well off and decide to see a doctor off the grid. You silly AARP reject! That's called "private contracting" and is against the law for any doctor who received Medicare reimbursement in the past two years.
Welcome to hell, people.
you're initial statement 'Then businesses need to stop laying people off at the mere prospect of loss, and wait until there's an actual break.' is not something any business owner, especially in a business where the margin is very tight, would ever say.
Small business owners are also investors. Investors bet on the future. They don't wait wait until some thing happens before they take action. It will be too late.
Every business organization in America fought Obama's policies. They lost, so it is time to throw in the towel and play it safe.
One cannot look at costs alone. One must also look at productivity and well being, because those are the marks of sustainability. People will pay a quarter extra for service with a smile, especially when that smile is not being faked.
I certainly was employed full time and was making good money until I retired for health reasons.
I gave you the formula above. Cost are almost everything. I am a CPA my area of specialty is cost accounting but I certainly did all types of Financial accounting.
Revenues: Assumed to come from sales, sales come from a variety of factors, such as the market, who has money, and where it's going. Lets break it down to the microcosm of those who show up to the business, those they know, and people passing outside. Passersby will tend to enter a place that is moderately crowded and appears to have satisfied customers. The rates of customer satisfaction effect who buys what and when, it affects repeat business. If enough people crew the store to service everyone during the busy hours, the store generates good revenues. If the workers are happy, they factor into how happy the...
Revenues: Assumed to come from sales, sales come from a variety of factors, such as the market, who has money, and where it's going. Lets break it down to the microcosm of those who show up to the business, those they know, and people passing outside. Passersby will tend to enter a place that is moderately crowded and appears to have satisfied customers. The rates of customer satisfaction effect who buys what and when, it affects repeat business. If enough people crew the store to service everyone during the busy hours, the store generates good revenues. If the workers are happy, they factor into how happy the atmosphere is, and happy people buy more and pay more. Aside from the rushes, a skeleton crew or a little more than one is fine. The part-time and on-call employees allow for surprise rushes to meet service and sales expectations without losing too much to overtime pay.
Costs: These can be itemized in labor(this would also include the benefits packages too), and materials, fees and duties, cleanup, damages, and utilities and overhead, and finally turnover and rehiring. Hidden costs are failed revenues, by sales not met when productivity is low or shifts are understaffed. Turnover can incur some of these hidden cost.. In general Turnover will decrease productivity and increase costs, so turnover needs to be small. There are two primary factors in productivity going down with labor costs, 1.) When people have a better sense of well being they are more productive. 2.) The quality of the wage dictates the quality of person who will be willing to take the job. The pay doesn't have to be that good to get a good employee, but if the pay is total crap, that's all it will attract. People will also work better when there is strong leadership, and a full or balanced crew. It's a skeleton crew if all the roles are addressed by at least one person, otherwise it's a short crew.
Well Being:
Many of the things which manage costs and generate revenue can be done without incurring many additional costs. With discipline and integrity a courageous team will accomplish seemingly miraculous things. Whatever you can do to increase their well being will increase their loyalty and their willingness to go the extra mile.... The turnover process will inevitably weed out those where that is not the case, but for this to happen strong leadership is needed. Well Being is a factor:(Henry Ford seemed to think so anyway) it's harder to quantify, but given enough data it can be indexed, which is close enough. It's real enough that if it is ignored, your analyses are going to at best deliver optimized quarterly returns(If that's all you're concerned about, then you're part of the problem.) and, at worst, fail to line up with reality at all(which happens in more projections than accountants are comfortable admitting).
It looks like you copied it from somewhere.
First of all, do you even understand what a differential analysis actually is?
My formula; Profits = Revenues - Cost.is correct.
All I did was perform expansions upon the inner workings of two functions. If you can't do that, you can't perform a differential analysis. We can't look at these as variables in their own right, when they are clearly outputs of other underlying processes. (And if economists can't grasp this concept, then I fear for this world's well being)
So you can call the profit function P(t) which is equal to the difference of the revenue function(S(t) for sales over time) and the costs function(E(t) for expenditures over time.. keeps form using C as a function call) (S(t) - E(t))
So that:
(1)
P(t) = S(t) - E(t)
One could derive this function in respect to E and get:
(2)
dP/dE = dS/dE - dE/dE
but then the /dE's will all cancel out and you'd get:
(3)
dP = dS - dE Which are not useful on their own.
So why did I go on this tangent?
Simple, I have mathematically proven tha...

So why did I go on this tangent?
Simple, I have mathematically proven that you cannot look at it solely in terms of changes in Expenditures unless you have a functional knowledge of what all of the functions are composed of. You will see that S(t) and E(t) are not simple variables, nor are they singular variable functions. They are indeed multivariable functions, and they may share some of the same variables, meaning they are not likely independent functions, and it also means changing any of the component variables could potentially change the output of both functions. If it had been that E and S were independent functions, then you could compress the output of the function E into a single variable, and truthfully derive in respect to E, but the fact of the matter is, the independence of E and S is a myth. In fact given enough time and enough information, I could prove that one of the components the function S is a derivative and or a proportion of a component of E, making S dependent upon E.
I am not going to read the crap. It is way below my knowledge and experience.
Why don't you give a reference on where your copying your textbook crap from.

Offering health care to employees in the past, is totally different, now that obamacare is going to be dictating what type and amount of coverage is acceptable. If you really believe these companies are using this as just an excuse, then there is no way you could have any business sense, at all.
You also show a much higher income than many people, but you say you were worried about paying for your prescriptions. This is something else which just rings as false. If your income is really as high as you claim, then there should be n...

You also show a much higher income than many people, but you say you were worried about paying for your prescriptions. This is something else which just rings as false. If your income is really as high as you claim, then there should be no problem for you to pay for your medications. It sounds like you just want somebody else to pay for what should be your responsibility.
As for no GOP governor opting out, you might want to try doing some reading, instead of just listening to the far left. http://www.newsmax.com/Politi... http://www.salon.com/2012/07/...
I think you also missed all those law suits from the states trying to have obamacare declared unconstitutional. http://www.lifesitenews.com/n... http://blog.heritage.org/2011...
As for how bad the law is, why not read what many governors have had to say about it? http://rgppc.com/gop-governor...
As for my scripts, yes I can easily afford to pay the "doughnut" hole and the ACA has little effect on me directly but there are hundreds of thousands of individuals who aren't as fortunate as I am so I stand by my original post.
business is NOT an employment agency. people are hired when they are needed and NOBODY is hired if they can't make more money for the company than that employee costs.
Obamacare throws a huge variable at the business owner, and when you consider restaurant margins are tight to begin with, cutting hours and reducing benefits are the first things to get cut.
dam is that Obama an IDIOT!.
There will be some innocent people that ends up caught in this Obamanation web. All ways happens.
