‘LIBERTY TAX’: WHITE HOUSE, MEDIA ATTACK AFTER DRUDGE PAYS OBAMACARE OPT-OUT PENALTY
BREITBART ^ | March 21 2014 | MATTHEW BOYLE

Posted on 03/21/2014 7:28:08 PM PDT by MeshugeMikey

A White House aide set off a stampede of liberal media criticism for Internet news pioneer Matt Drudge over Obamacare – but his critics don't seem to understand how small businesses pay taxes . The brouhaha started when Drudge tweeted, “Just paid the Obamacare penalty for not 'getting covered'... I'M CALLING IT A LIBERTY TAX.”

I bet Obama and his ilk forgot about the quarterly tax being due for business.

They can't forget something they've never experienced.

Don’t these “smartest rulers” realize that people will hold them accountable for health care outcomes? They take over and they own it. Some Georgia hot head has their mom die from red tape delays and hot head pays their congress critter and possibly the critter’s whole DNA chain a pay back?

They’ve backed off the ‘slave reparations’ talk since someone pointed out that it was Obama’s ancestors who sold the slaves to begin with.

And Muslims continue slavery until today. But, evil must be protected by the democRATS and good must be demonized.

I oppose Zer0 care. If I am forced to pay it then I think I can “Tax” those with the Zero stickers on their cars. They like it, they pay it! FUBO!!!

The WH knows nothing until they make things up.

Just like their 51% of voters moron LIV base. The LIV will believe ANYTHING spouted by the RAT party and ignore all FACTS broadcast by the GOP.

The country is indeed over as you and I knew it yesterday. ITS OVER - Article V will take longer to implement than the country has left to survive the financial catastrophe that awaits us all. The dollar will be collapsed.

Exactly. From the article it appears they are purposefully ignoring that annoying fact.

That's what happens when you've never had a real job, with a real boss that pays real taxes, quarterly. It's hilarious how ignorant these fools are. Tweeting that Matt Drudge was lying was the ultimate "You might be an idiot if....Here's your sign", Jeff Foxworthy moment.

The lefties keep saying that the tax isn't due , but it's listed right on the tax form-unfreakinbelievable. It would be funny if it weren't so pathetic. Sheeeesh.

Nice work Drudge.

Hey Meshuge Mikey.

Ain’t Yiddish a great way to tell Obama to fuck off?

Justice Roberts is in a rubber room and won’t be speaking anymore.

He’s so smart that he screwed a whole nation on behalf of Obama and his marxists.

Nothing to be proud of! More like the “shame of the century”.

It is my third favorite web site. I start each morning with Free Republic, then Ace of Spades, and then The Drudge Report. My mornings are fantastic.

It’s getting to be that not having insurance aka Obamacare is as big a deal as not registering previously legal ‘assault rifles’. In both cases I believe it is a form of civil disobedience against laws that are morally repugnant and/or unconstitutional at their core.

It's hilarious how ignorant these fools are.

I hope Drudge is keeping track of who these media idiots are and posts a list. A few photos of them with eggs on their faces would be in order.

Excerpt from 2014 1040ES instructions


Health care coverage. When you file your 2014 tax
return in 2015, you will need to either (1) indicate on your
return that you and your family had health care coverage
throughout 2014, (2) claim an exemption from the health
care coverage requirement for some or all of 2014, or (3)
make a payment if you do not have coverage or an
exemption(s) for all 12 months of 2014. For examples on
how this payment works, go to www.IRS.gov/aca and
click under the “Individuals & Families” section. You may
want to consider this when figuring your “Other taxes” on
Line 12 of the 2014 Estimated Tax Worksheet. For
general information on these requirements, go to
www.IRS.gov/aca.

Maybe a tax preparer can comment on this, but as I read it if you expect to owe IRS tax money related to obamacare it seems if you do not want to pay additional penalties in 2015 filing you better pay in advance in 2014.
