Note that many of these are in the service industry - low paying. They may be the best in the county, but they do not offer a sustainable living wage. They have a lot of part-time employees as well, so they do NOT have to pay for health care. I am NOT for obamacare - but this is just an observation about these companies. They will still find a way around the health care issue - all they have to do is cut their hours (and therefore their employee's pay) and they will be exempt.
