Andre DiMino has been running medical device company ADM Tronics since his father, who founded the decades-old firm, died in 2001. He’s never laid off anybody.
“These people are like family with us,” he said.
The boss might not be able to hold out much longer. Come Jan. 1, an ObamaCare-tied tax specific to his industry is expected to go into effect. Though the Obama administration has downplayed the impact, DiMino calls it “devastating.”
“I think after all of these decades of not laying people off, I think we may have to face that,” DiMino told FoxNews.com. He predicted he might have to immediately lay off three people in his manufacturing division and possibly more after that.
DiMino, whose Bergen County, N.J., business currently employs 20 workers, is one of hundreds of CEOs across the country clamoring for Washington’s attention, urging lawmakers to kill the tax before it kills jobs.

I thought all taxes had to be voted on and approved by the House. If so, our elected representatives allowed this to happen.
The sad part is that not one of them read the bill nor did they have a clue as to what it contained. Obama forced it through with the Louisiana Kick-Back and the Cornhusker deal. If you are not aware of what they are, Google them both. It was Al Frankin’s vote that clinched the deal, he is the Senator that won the Senate seat by 350 votes and it was later determined, TER Federal Judge ordered that he won, that more than 500 felon’s had voted for him. Once again, the “Chicago Machine” prevailed. It was also proven that it would have been impossible for them to have read the entire 2,700 pages in the time allotted before they voted all of that garbage into law. I believe that Obama-Care like the physical cliff and all of his other idiotic programs are nothing more than a diversionary tactic to take our eyes off of the real fall, which is the caliphate.
It (Obamacare)went to the Supreme Court and the Judge wrote the bill as passed but it was written and a tax. When trying to get this bill passed good old Pelosi said, ” We have to pass it before we know what is in it”. So, much for educated people in California.
