Obamacare to Push Pizza Prices Higher

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has been blamed for a  lot of things—higher taxes, potential insurance rate hikes, and now, higher  pizza prices. According to Papa John’s Founder, Chairman and CEO John H.  Schnatter, health-care reform will cost the company an additional 11 cents to 14  cents per pizza.

“We’re not supportive of Obamacare like most businesses in our industry,” Schnatter said in a call to analysts. “But our business model and unit economics  are about as ideal as you can get for a food company to absorb Obamacare.”

Schnatter added that on a corporate basis, the reform  would increase  Papa John’s price per pizza by 15 to 20 cents.

Many companies will be forced to raise prices, many will close.

Yup. This slight increase on the pizza is just very indicative of much larger things to come.
