Blub – Fixed, and thanks for the heads up. We repaired the FDL crosspost yesterday but forgot the original.

House draft from the tri-committee tweaks the small business contributions and adjust them to payroll: If your business payroll is not greater than 250K, you pay no fine/tax. If >250K but less than 300K you pay 2% of payroll, if >300K but <350K, you pay 4 % fine/tax, if >350K but <400K, you pay 6% fine/tax of your payroll. If >400K payroll you are mandated to provide health care coverage for employees or pay 8% fine/tax.

That’s how it looked to me: Read this bill and see if you find the same facts:

moderator: can we set this up so that the streaming feed doesn’t load automatically on page download (it gets triggered automatically even on the FDL toplevel page? I (and I’m sure others here) either access FDL at work or have bandwidth restrictions. I just alarmed a couple of people when my PC just started talking to me. Thx.
