Obamacare is a tax act

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2012

Obama’s Chief of Staff tries to weasel, but Chris Wallace commits actual journalism and provides actual facts, to which our Dear Leader‘s CoS continually denies and repeats the same lies.

The Obama regime SG argued to the Supreme Court that Obamacare is a tax, the Supreme Court ruled that the only way it passed Constitutional muster was under the government’s ability to tax.  They were very clear that it was not Constitutional under the Commerce Clause or under the “promote the general welfare” clause.  The Obamacare act does not fund a single additional doctor, but it does fund 16,000 new  IRS agents in order to collect revenue  that will be generated by the Obamacare (more accurately “Obamatax” act).  That alone should tell you what the basic nature of the act is, it’s a tax!

Update:

It’s A Tax Hike Stupid! Supreme Court Rules that ObamaCare Really a Tax Increase, Not a Mandate

Quote of the Day

“In the political language of today, people who want to keep what they have earned are said to be “greedy,” while those who wish to take their earnings from them and give it to others (who will vote for them in return) show “compassion.”
