Last week when I first read Byron York's article titled "Health care reform means more power for the IRS," I felt like I was reading the script of a horror movie. I was in such disbelief that I spent hours looking for the specific section in H.R. 3200 that expanded the powers of the Internal Revenue Service.
Unfortunately, I found it. It's Division A, Title IV on pages 167-215 called Amendments to IRS Code of 1986. The expanded powers of the IRS in H.R. 3200 would empower the IRS to require taxpayers to show proof of health insurance coverage, collect fines on individuals and employers who did not have adequate proof of health insurance and determine whether your health insurance was a government approved plan.

Massive crowd pull down B. Hussein's statue in Washington
In contrast to fake Astroturf, rent-a-mob liberal protesters, Americans attending the Tea Party march on D.C. paid their own way, were fully clothed, have actual jobs and actually pay taxes. Liberals protest for a living.
But there's more! You can tell the massive weekend march was a taxpayers' march because:
-- The media keep lying about the turnout. Just like they keep lying about the number of "uninsured" Americas -- half of them illegal aliens. Hundreds of thousands of actual Americans turned out for the Tea Party march Saturday (making this the largest gathering of real Americans in Washington since Bush's second inaugural), it all happens while cameras are rolling, but the media keep insisting the cameras are liars.
-- Nobody got arrested and there was no looting and rioting.
-- Garbage wasn't strewn all over the place. The protest area was cleaner AFTER the march than before. When liberals protest, inevitably they bring a swarm of flies along and, after the smelly event, it takes a week to collect all the trash on the ground. It's as if the streets were their home. Oh wait, they are. Even when the event isn't a protest, these clean-Earth champions are careful to litter the whole place with mounds of empty soda cans, plastic water bottles, coffee cups, food, food trays, straws, Twinkie wrappers, posters and used condoms. Such as in the wake of Obama's inaugural. In fairness, liberals point out that, when it comes to personal hygiene, they at least bathe once a week.
-- Unlike liberal protest events, there were American flags there! Hundreds of thousands of them. No Hamas flags or North Korean flags or Kim Jong Il t-shirts anywhere and the signs weren't written by representatives from SEIU and ACORN. There were no signs saying, 'Please Tread On Me', 'Obama Never Lies!', 'Hands on my body!', 'Spread the wealth!', 'More bailouts, please!', '34 Czars are not enough!', 'Don't quit spending!', 'Even the NAZIS had death panels -- why not us?'. Also, there was no bong smoke and there were no intellectually stimulating "Hey! Hey! Ho! Ho!" chants.
-- In contrast to libbie protesters, who get bused in from D.C. to stage rallies in D.C., the Tea Party protesters came from Florida, Michigan, Kansas, Alabama, California, Colorado, Georgia and the rest of the 57 states.
Showing how amazingly on-message the Democrats aren't, today Obama will be in New York to give a speech about how he saved the economy by giving speeches and press conferences. He also insists that everyone stands to lose health care under the current awful economy he saved. And while Obama turns his failed efforts to "financial reform", Democrats in the House are threatening to distract themselves for another week, warning Joe Wilson that unless he offers another apology for the same thing, Pelosi will make him stay after school! With Nancy trailing in polls against the swine flu, Joe Wilson rode the Joe-mentum to rack up over a million bucks in campaign donations. But to push Congress's stellar approval ratings even lower, the Democrat leadership plans to propose a resolution of disapproval Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday or Thursday which is a badge of honor and puts re-election in the bag for Wilson.
Making matters worse, now even Osama is losing faith in Obama. So sad! In a taped message released yesterday, Osama called Obama "powerless", a wimp, just a new version of Bush-lite, and blamed the Afghan and Iraq warmongering on big corporations and the Jews -- reiterating word-for-word what he frequently posts at DailyKos.
But, not to worry. Any day now House Majority Whip James Clyburn will call on racist Osama to apologize -- or face a devastating resolution of disapproval. Provided it includes a strong or robust public option.
Last week was supposed to be the week that Obama broke out the Kool-Aid again and "reasserted" control of the debate with his poorly-watched speech, but instead it looks like Obama got owned on Saturday. After fleeing to Minnesota, he tried again to prop up the flailing Deathcare plan with panels and all via . . . another speech. His flacks have gone all Baghdad Bob, insisting these hundreds of thousands of taxpayers are merely "tens of thousands" and do not represent "mainstream America", which consists of lobbyists, fawning "reporters" and Goldman Sachs. But the newly-awakened giant isn't going back to sleep -- and will be back with tens of millions of Joe Wilsons if Congress didn't get the message this time.
Anyway, that's...

Look for this to increase interest in the fair tax.
IRS in H.R. 3200 would empower the IRS to require taxpayers to show proof of health insurance coverage, collect...
But not illegals.
I’ve already heard people at work talking about how they “can’t afford” health insurance because they’re healthy and the premiums cost more than just paying when they get sick. Never mind the stupidity of that statemnet on its face. Our premiums are about $150/month for a single person. Truly affordable for people making what we make. They then go on to say that 0bama’s plan is great and will fix everything for people who want insurance but can’t afford it.
They don’t get it that they’ll be forced to purchase insurance. (Likely the public option, since our company will SURELY drop our current coverage and go for the public option.) They don’t get it that they will have to purchase insurance they “can’t afford” so that other people can buy the public option insurance that they currently “can’t afford.” They don’t get it that their money will be forcibly taken to subsidize the insurance of a few.
“Because no on should go broke because they got sick” - a refrain I hear over and over. No one ever points out that no one should go broke because they got in a car accident, had their house flood, got a divorce, etc. Let’s make everyone have insurance for every possible thing. Then no one will have to go broke on account of those things, because we’ll all already be broke on account of paying for all that insurance.
**Buy health insurance or face wrath of IRS,**
Buy it now, the IRS Screws you with NO deductibility, if you’re an individual. Just adjusting deduction, would cause plenty to buy it.
MORONS.
I do something RADICAL... I just PAY for my Medical Expenses like I do all my OTHER expenses.
As I’m learning to take care of myself with vitamins,etc...
All of my MEDICAL Expenses for the LAST 10 years, would pay for 1 year of INSURANCE...
Not a very good ROI.. (return on investment)
Once again demonstrating the profound wisdom of the founders who did everything they could to prevent average citizens from having to deal directly with their government in paying their taxes!
We will never again be a truly FREE people for so long as we continue to abide the communist inspired income tax and the IRS!
We could have prevented all of this from happening by doing what was necessary when NFA was passed.
Important Message please watch both of them ...
The You Tube links below are Part 1 and 2 of a tape made by a 2 senior citizens. He and his wife made the tape from their ranch in south-central Texas.
At their own expense, they made 1000 copies and sent one to every single congressman and senator and some media outlets.
Let’s hope that each and every one of them watched and LISTENED!!!
When the 1st tape ends a link should come up for you to watch Part 2. If you think this is important, please do pass it on..

What a great project this husband and wife undertook on our behalf!
They are Americans standing up for the TRUTH!
They are, in my estimation, TRUE heros!
It doesn’t happen that often, but every once in a while I’m surprised by the lack of reading comprehension skills displayed by fellow FReepers.
You’re language is offensive, abusive, and also demonstrates your lack of ability to read and comprehend that which you have read.
excellent!
Sir.. comprehension went out the window with your 2nd sentence. I don’t care what their premiums cost. I AGREE WITH THEM, NOT YOU!
When you use the word STUPID, what you say after that is pointless. I’m sorry if you felt abused or dissed or offended or whatever term you use. Actually, I’m not. The TONE of the first two sentences your post sounded just like the LIBERALS I’ve been FIGHTING for the last 30 some years.
