    Josho, I admire your logical reasoning and utterly convincing language. Are you, by chance, a lawyer? If so, you’re a much better one than I was.

    But, of course, you’re preaching to people who will never listen and don’t think of anything but “It was all right for ME before! Why should I put up with any changes?”

    Josho – Okay. You win, who can keep up with your essays? And, what chance do I have against someone who’s always right? Plus you’ve got Williepitt on your side, and he thinks you’re a lawyer. Your heart must be fluttering a bit, huh.

    So long…

    Trouble with Josho’s “essays”, Woodrow (#77), is that they’re filled with truth. And you can’t compete with that, can you?

    Steve, Ill ask again. Does any area restaurant qualify? As i read it, you can have 45 full time and 100 part time employees and still be too small to be included.

    So far as I can tell, NO ONE posting on this thread has dealt with the two issues that make the new health care law perfectly acceptable for restaurants: the limitation of the employers-provide-health-care requirement to employers of at least 50 full time people, and the significant tax breaks businesses get for providing such care.

    Therefore, I consider the “industry associations” that are opposed to the law, and the posters on this thread, to be totally out of line in their opposition. Anyone want to comment on that?
