You are 100% right about the ACA.
As far as salaried employees... Corporations have been exploiting salary exempt laws for many years. These same corporations constantly lobby politicians to keep the status quo. Many low and mid level salary employees do not perform enough work that meets the definition of salary exempt, yet they are not paid overtime for work past 40 hours.
Before the flames come that I am a Occupy Wall Street type.... I should tell you I am a retired HR executive from a Fortune 100 company.
