First of all that is an OPINION piece from the extremist Hillsdale FAKE College and gave no "FACTS" to back its claim. It simply fabricated a FAKE tax on FT employment and then opined from there.
From your link: "the penalty on employers and the subsidies in the exchanges add up to
a tax on full-time employment—a tax that you pay if you work full time but not if you work part time or don’t work at all. And the problem with that, of course, is that
by taxing full-time work—which is the same as subsidizing part-time work and unemployment—you get less of the former and more of the latter two."
Later he admits the tax he fabricated does not actually exist in the law, "
In all of the economic analyses of the ACA, there was no mention of this full-time employment tax—despite the fact that it’s the single biggest tax in the law."
If you actually want "FACTS" you need to go to the BLS data on PT workers who want FT work, and you will see that after the PPACA became law in March 2010 the number went DOWN from 9,126,000 to 5,696,000 when Obama left and has continued DOWN under the PPACA to 3,878,000 now!!!!!
