I didn't see this big one listed:

A little known fact of the Obamacare Law (among many other unpleasant surprises in the fine print you can be sure) is a 3.8% tax to be imposed when you sell your home--most people's greatest or only asset. 3.8% to Uncle Sam right off the bat. So how will that tax impact those who are involved in distress sales, who are underwater on their homes?

Your link is to a Laffer opinion piece that does not discuss the 3.8% tax that reference.

Can you please provide a link to support your claim.
