Asshole's a billionaire who lives in a castle and has the nerve to claim the "need to cut the wages of his employees" because of Obamacare.

Take a look at EVERY SINGLE major chain restaurant, retail store, etc etc etc.
They have ALL used the impending Obamacare AND minimum wage increases are reasons to BOTH:
1) Increase their prices on everything
2) Cut wages and jobs COMPLETELY
Subway for example now has like 3 total things on their "five dollar footlong" menu, and most everything else is $7.50. My aunt owns a Subway, and it's KILLING their business. Their food costs HAVE skyrocketed I'll admit that. Of course, corporate is reporting higher-than-ever profits to its investors.
No surprise there
Additionally they've ALL implemented "raise freezes" pretty much across the board. They know the minimum wage increase is coming, IN SEVERAL ***YEARS***, and they've used that as an excuse to free all wage increases til then.
