Obama care could shut down thousands of volunteer fire departments

“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.”

(Well, hell. The prez can just sign an administrative directive, same as he has for other things that weren’t working the way he wanted.)
