A couple of days ago I got an e-mail from the American Staffing Association urging me to contact my Representative and Senators and “Tell them to vote ‘no’ when the bill comes up for a final vote.”
Now, let me be clear, I do not think this blog is an appropriate place to discuss the merits of health care reform. One, it is too much of a hot button issue for discussion here and two, I am not educated enough on the matter to post a blog that would comprehensively cover the topic. I do understand the fear that must be present in this industry surrounding health care legislation. Regardless of how you come out on this issue I am sure that you would agree that for a temporary staffing firm the thought of adding an additional annual cost of $2000 per employee (that you do not know if you can recover) would be a daunting position.
