Just last week we learned that more and more employers are embracing the ideas of "job splitting". You hire two workers, each of them working 20 hours each and avoid having to offer full time benefits and you avoid the heavy burden of Obamacare mandates.

...

So, the question that now must be answered: Did we really create good, solid full time jobs? Or did America just begin the new and terrible trend of making millions of American workers "part timers", unable to provide a solid floor of support for themselves and their families? If that's the case it would certainly appear that more jobs were created when, in actuality, all we did was to break up one good paying job and created "two" part time jobs.
