OBAMA PLOTS ANOTHER WAY TO BREAK THE LAW AND SCREW TAXPAYERS INTO PAYING FOR IT.

The Reader’s Digest reported that the Obama administration is trying to pull another unreported tactic to screw taxpayers into help pay for his re-election..   Because of sequestration cuts taking effect in 2013, many businesses that have government contracts (particularly those with defense contracts) were going to have to lay off workers as a result.  Now there is a law in place called the WARN Act, which requires that businesses which intended to do large layoffs must, by law, give their employees 60 days notice before those layoffs are to take effect.  Since the layoffs would take effect in January 2013, this means that these layoffs notices would have to go out in the beginning of November.  But what also happens in the beginning of November?  The presidential election!  So the Obama administration saw this coming.  They saw the PR disaster just days before the election of thousands of Americans receiving notices that they will be losing their jobs, thanks to a bill signed by the president.  So what did the Obama administration do?  They told these companies that they could simply ignore the WARN Act, and that there was no need to give these employees 60 days notice.

Well now, the Obama administration has upped the stakes. On Friday, the Obama administration issued guidelines for defense contractors, which said not only would it be “inappropriate” for these companies to issue these notices just days before the election, but that they would be “compensated for legal costs if layoffs occur due to contract cancellations under sequestration — but only if the contractors follow the Labor guidance.” 

In other words, the taxpayers will foot the legal costs associated with breaking the law, just to make sure that the president doesn’t look bad just days before the election.  I'm sorry, but aside from the Reader’s Digest, I didn't see this little maneuver reported by any of the major media 'journalists.'
