Influential conservative commentator Charles Krauthammer is predicting that to pay for the unconstitutional mess known as Obamacare, Obama will have to push for a National Sales Tax within the coming year. In analysis delivered on the O'Reilly Factor, Krauthammer explained why he's certain that the Public Option—long denied by Obama and the Democrats as something we would see—is in fact here already, too, in the very bill Obama signed into law just yesterday. A sales tax is defined as a levy on the sale of goods and services, likely imposed at different levels of business activity; so it's really a value-added tax, which is especially vicious because its costs are passed on to the consumer as businesses raise prices. It also hits the poor harder because of its regressive tax nature. The National Sales Tax may be inevitable because of the hidden costs of Obamacare, which are a lot more extreme than what Democrats will let on.

I expect Obama to gut the military, as well. For the sick children of course.
