Right, as Barack Hussein Obama set the standard when he swore time after time:
This news came out the same day that Speaker Boehner decided to wave the white flag on the debt limit without any concessions. This one rule alone is something he could’ve chosen to fight in return for votes last night- and he probably would’ve gotten a lot of Dems to go along with him (the IRS isn’t exactly the most popular agency). Instead, we get nothing.
The GOP-e ruling class then pats itself on the back for getting this “distraction” off our backs- the same way that Romney’s expensive consultants applauded him for minimizing an explosive issue like Benghazi (because it supposedly took the focus away from his economic message). And we all know how successful that strategy was...
Boehner and his cronies are the beneficiaries of a movement they never understood- nothing will change until they are removed.
White House Delays Obamacare Employer Mandate; Forces Employers to get Permission from the IRS for Layoffs
Feb 12, 2014 Lennie Jarratt
President Obama has once again decided to change a law without Congress. This time he is delaying the employer Obamacare mandate until 2016 for companies with 50-99 employees. He also lowered the percentage of companies of 100 or more to have to offer 70% of it’s employees coverage instead of 95%.
If you remember back in October 2013 with the government “shutdown” the Republicans were trying to extend the mandate and Obama and the Democrats refused to negotiate on that point. Now we have Obama extended the mandates unilaterally.
One of the other provisions now is though employers must now justify any layoffs of reduction in hours to the IRS. Yes, the IRS is being directly inserted into the hiring/firing decisions of employers.
To be eligible for the additional delay, the Obama administration says an employer “may not reduce the size of its workforce or the overall hours of service of its employees” unless it can justify those reductions to the Internal Revenue Service.
The IRS is now truly a political weapon to be used at the will of the Obama administration. Obama is telling business owners you will do as I say regardless of you business needs.
The day is coming when Timothy McVeigh will be regarded as a national hero for blowing up an IRS office.
They are talking about “exit taxes” for people who leave the state.
