A business should be able to work around the mandate by hiring employees who are under 26 as they might choose to stay on their parents' plan.  In fact, young people can get an advantage when interviewing if they make it clear that they are not interested in health care coverage at this time because they are comfortable with the plan they are already on.  Actually, not just the under 26 crowd, but anyone can get an edge on the competition if they don't need coverage (for instance, being on your spouse's plan).

Businesses can try to get around it by cutting people back to part-time, but how often will that work?  If I have the option to either work 36 hours per week at Papa John's with NO health care, or work 40 hours per week at Pizza Hut* WITH health care, which option do you think I'd choose?  And Pizza Hut can promote the fact that they have so many full time employees.
*I actually have no idea where Pizza Hut stands on the issue.  Just an example.

[/quote]but you are not allowed to ask age when hiring. Asking about wishes to stay on parents plan is also illegal
Pizza hut is not a struggling business about to go bankrupt. Large corporations like things the way they are.
Pay minimum wage, workers get their health insurance from the tax man, and their subsidised housing and subsidised health care and food stamps
