Papa John's wants employees to go without health care to keep pizza prices down by 14 cents per pizza. Classy. http://t.co/2VjCagSp

Dear Papa John's: Only 14 cents per pie to provide hard-working employees health care benefits? You should be ashamed. Signed, Ex-customers

I'm pretty sure I'm not finished mocking Papa John's CEO for arguing against the ACA by saying it will add 11 cents to the cost of my pizza.

Obamacare just made Papa John's pizza more expensive

8/8/2012

The real effects of Obamacare are now being felt. John Schnatter, the chairman and CEO of the Papa John's pizzeria chain, announced that in order to deal with the new law's health care mandate, the price of pizzas will have to go up 11 to 14 cents per pie. Oh, the humanity! Schnatter used increasing gas prices as an analogy for why costs had to rise: "Let's say fuel goes up … We don't like raising delivery charges, but the price of fuel is out of our control, as is Obamacare." Following this news, however, soon-to-be ex-customers are already stating they'll go elsewhere for their pizza needs. [Source]

Do you think Obamacare will have a negative impact on businesses?
