Looks like we’re going to get steamrolled by the FSA yet again.

“Free” ice cream for everyone!

Uhm, how’re you gonna pay for it?

Most people tell me, 'Yes, they would be happy to pay $1,000 more in taxes if they're paying $5,000 less in healthcare premiums,' " he said on NBC's "Meet the Press."

Why "most" people, and not "all" people? I know this is BS Socialist economics...but who wouldn't be happy to pay $1,000 and get $5,000 back?

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's (D-Calif.) comments that Democrats aren't "running on any platform of raising taxes."

Fees, fines, contributions... it's all the same in the wash.

Or wait... is Pelosi really saying everyone is paying their fair share and there's income equality?
