'A public safety disaster': Obamacare could force THOUSANDS of volunteer fire departments to close!

What evil people run our country now...

• * The Affordable Care Act forces companies with more than 50 workers to buy them all health insurance or pay hefty fines
• 
  
• * The IRS says volunteer firefighters are 'employees,' even though the Department of Labor says they're 'volunteers'
• 
  
• * Out of more than 1 million fire departments in the U.S., 87 per cent are staffed entirely or mostly by life-saving volunteers
• 
  
• * Members of Congress are weighing in, but the Obama administration hasn't taken any action yet to carve out a fire-fighting exception
