Obamacare's benefits --jobs

"Obamacare Strikes: Part-Time Jobs Surge To All Time High; Full-Time Jobs Plunge By 240,000"
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-07-0 ... nge-240000

"In June, the household survey reported that part-time jobs soared by 360,000 to 28,059,000 - an all time record high. Full time jobs? Down 240,000. And looking back at the entire year, so far in 2013, just 130K Full-Time Jobs have been added, offset by a whopping 557K Part-Time jobs."

I listened to CNBC this morning, and outside of a vague remark
about "job quality," no mention was made of this shift from
full-time to part-time jobs, which is presumably caused by
Obamacare.

I clicked through to the BLS link.

ZeroHedge is referring to the seasonally adjusted figures. If you look
at the non-adjusted figures, it shows an increase of 800,000 full-time
jobs, and a decrease of 300,000 part-time jobs. So the picture is a
little more muddled.
