Rove Labels Obamacare 'Unaffordable Careless Act'

The Affordable Care Act has several unintended consequences, and they're all negative, says Republican strategist Karl Rove.

More part-time and fewer full-time jobs are one of those consequences, he writes in a Wall Street Journal opinion piece, under the headline "Here Comes the Unaffordable Careless Act."

Obamacare requires companies with at least 50 workers to give health insurance to any of them who works more than 30 hours a week or pay a fine George W. Bush's former senior advisor points out..

"Not surprisingly, the number of hourly employees working 30-34 hours a week dropped by an average of 146,500 a month over the past year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics," Rove says. "The number working 25-29 hours rose by 119,000 a month."

The lack of hours can particularly hurt single working mothers and younger workers, Rove says.
