GREAT: PRICES OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES ABOUT TO SOAR - THANKS TO OBAMACARE!

NYTIMES REPORTS:
Farm labor contractors across California, the nation’s biggest agricultural engine, are increasingly nervous about a provision of the Affordable Care Act that will require hundreds of thousands of field workers to be covered by health insurance. 
... “That cost is going to be borne by us at the end of the day,” said Scott Deardorff, a partner at Oxnard-based Deardorff Family Farms, which grows strawberries, cauliflower and chard, among other salad bar staples, all of which are likely to be more expensive for consumers down the line. 
... The effects of the law could be profound. Insurance brokers and health providers familiar with California’s $43.5 billion agricultural industry estimate that meeting the law’s minimum health plan requirement will cost about $1 per hour per employee worked in the field.
MORE INFLATION - ON A STAPLE.

THIS HURTS POOR WORKING PEOPLE TO MOST.

THANKS OBAMA!
