We, in the tax preparation field are ‘joking’ about needing flak jackets for this year’s tax season. My personal belief is that this will be the make-or-break issue of Obamacare / PPACA providing that my fellow tax preparers properly identify the source of this added burden to the taxpayers.
There are many people who still believe in the ‘free lunch’ and free government largess. This is where the ‘rubber-meets-the-road’ and where money is paid. Many will have to be told that even with the added tax, they still saved money over inadequate and insulting insurance. Still, if I am permitted, I will tell all of my clients that, if they don’t like the results, they need to let our elites know their displeasure. Presidents, governors, Federal Senators and Representatives will, given my choice, get mail and complaints to remind them that decisions made behind closed doors and in the dead of night are not popular!
I will be a small voice, crying in the wilderness BUT God knows others in the same position have made world-shaking changes!
It’s going to be impossible to hide this cluster assault.
The GOP wisely decided not to rub any of the rough edges off of this thing.
It will be interesting to hear a report.
Keep track of the more “interesting” responses.
My impression is that most obamacare supporters don’t actually pay taxes anyway.
