William Heroman Jr, CEO of Billy Heroman’s Flowers, is being forced to cut his employees’ workers due to the high cost of Obamacare.

Heroman’s company has provided health insurance for its employees for nearly 60 years and they plan on continuing to provide it, at least for full-time employees.

“The easy thing for me to do as a businessman is to say ‘You know what? We’re going to quit paying.’ It’s $3000 a year (the first year) as a fine. I’ll pay a lot more than that in their insurance,” he told WBRZ-LA.
