All horse shi!. Nobody knows how this will work out but the fact remains that Government does not have the right or authority to penalize or tax on something it may not want.

Anyway, this story is from one of the most reliable Democrat propaganda organs in the nation. It’s very existence is predicated on lying for its party. It’s a minor miracle the Stinky hasn’t folded yet.
Bad arithmetic.
Obama said himself that 30 million Americans will not be covered by his plan.
If there are 310 million Americans, that means 9.7% of Americans will not be covered.
We’ll be spending $1 trillion to give free healthcare to illegals. We’ll be getting a lot more illegals.
No folks, we can’t let the left get away with this. They want it both ways.
Obama TOLD US that these were the folks that were breaking down the medical care system in the US. He said there were millions and millions of them. If only we could get them to buy health insurance the budgets would be balanced.
Now the spin is there really aren’t that many of them and it’s no big deal.
Huh?
Obama’s LIES were used to promote this takeover, and now they’re being used to justify it. Call them out on it every chance we get.
Right, the tax is hardly going to impact anyone at all.
I guess that’s why the Zombie Administration wants to add 50,000 new IRS agents.
The worst lie ever told by Republicans pales in significance when compared to what Democrats do as a matter of routine. This bit of tripe demonstrates that. ...To reduce things to the lowest common denominator, a tax is any money taken from “the people” for the sake of funding government, or redistributing wealth. How the money gets confiscated matters little to the empty pocket.
As usual, a lib writer picks and chooses his facts and then spins for the damocrats.
The AMT was meant to tax 20-30 millionaires. Sooner, than later, the ZerOcare tax penalty will catch the majority.
SCOTUS said it was a tax. What's the matter, Philly Inquirer? Don't believe them?
1.2%? That's over 3 million people. Weren't liberals in a tizzy about that many people being homeless? Of course, that's only during a Repub administration....
But still, I believe it will affect a lot more than 1.2%, especially middle class people who really cannot afford to purchase anymore health insurance than what they have (or will lose when their employer drops any and all contributions to said insurance!).
I think the Inquirer is typically liberal: accusing others of exactly what they are doing.
I quit reading that liberal rag over 40 years ago
My other brother continually bitches about the damn paper but I could never get him to quit buying it
Ignore the liars! Let me assure you, yes yes, make no mistake about because I am being perfectly clear: our Dear Leader "Obama's supposedly sweeping tax — his penalty for noncompliance — will be levied on a grand total of 1.2 percent of the American people."It sounds like big Dick Polmam is psycic. Wasn’t it “Stretch” Pelosi who said they need to pass the bill before they know what’s in it? HEY, DICK, use your psycic powers to tell me the numbers that’ll come up on the next Powerball drawing and I’ll split my share of the winnings 60-40 in your favor. OK, 70-30, would that work for ya?
the thing about opinions has never changed, we have one
this writers loses his in first two paragraph’s
“...Witness the Republican talking point du jour, about how President Obama has supposedly slapped a humongous tax hike on the middle class, thanks to his health-reform provision that requires most Americans to buy health coverage.
Ever since Chief Justice John Roberts upheld the law,...”
Roberts ruled a TAX, not a law
BULLSHIT! This rat is assuming that after all the crap kicks in, that ONLY 1.2% won't be able to afford insurance. It'll be WAY more than that.
Although the U.S. Constitution places some limits on state power, the states enjoy guaranteed rights by virtue of their reserved powers pursuant to the Tenth Amendment. A state has the inherent and reserved right to regulate its domestic commerce. However, that right must be exercised in a manner that does not interfere with, or place a burden on, interstate commerce, or else Congress may regulate that area of domestic commerce in order to protect interstate commerce from the unreasonable burden. Although a state may not directly regulate, prohibit, or burden interstate or foreign commerce, it may incidentally and indirectly affect it by a bona fide, legitimate, and reasonable exercise of its police powers. States are powerless to regulate commerce with Indian tribes. ...

The biggest Republican lie is that they are republicans.
