he spoke with our griff jenkins at his company's virginia plant. >> this is a production facility to build carriers here in the united states. >> reporter: and what does one do with this product? >> well, i tell people it's a dump truck on rubber tracks. >> reporter: so, ken, how will obama care impact your business? >> well, initially we don't think there is an immediate impact. the worry we have looking forward is what will obama care do to the rise in premium rates from the insurance companies within virginia. if we're faced with 50, 60, 70% increase in premium costs that we have to pass to our employees, then we have a new decision to make. and that decision is do we leave the traditional health insurance marketplace and force our employees into the exchange, or do we force our employees to pay a greater part of their take-home salaries? if it ends up providing more health insurance to a broader swath of people, then great. but the problems for small businesses like mine is it going to come at a cost that forces me to make some really difficult decisions that could harm our emplo
