My mother-in-law has three small rental properties (her and her late husband's parent's houses), two of which (a duplex) are inhabited by low income renters (one disabled deaf person). The other is rented by a retired couple. She is already renting to them below market because they are good renters and she is a kind person.

If she gets hit with a 3.8% tax, I can guaran-damn-tee you she will pass 100% of it along to the three renters - all three I would bet a paycheck are Obama voters (I've met and dealt with them).

IF you make even $30,000 dollars a year and buy a medical device like a walker or cane you are having your taxes raised by obama.

Are tampons still considered medical devices, or did they “fix” that mistake in the bill?

Obama lied and the economy died.

No COLAs for 3 years, this includes the retired Military as well. And our Tricare for Life is being hit by BIG new fees in 2011! Local taxes going up, state wants more fees on items, we don’t have a state IT.

And the cost of your food went up too, and will keep going up as this crap goes into effect...businesses pass those cost on to the consumer.

I’m having bumper stickers made up (just a few) $523 BILLION MEDICARE CUT & GUT, HOW’S THAT HOPE & CHANGE WORKING FOR U NOW!

We are a town heavy on retired Military, and a lot of old geezers like me and you. Republicans should have screamed louder about the cut & gut of Medicare?SS and Tricare.

I would like to see a “Blatant Obama Lies” stickied thread, with, when possible, YouTube links to Barry0’s ugly mouth making the promises he knew he would break.

Half the public wouldn’t even care if their taxes were 99% of their weekly income. Anything for the “greater good” and glorious leader King Barack.

You are wrong. The half you are talking about do care about their taxes, that is why Bozo lies about who he is going to tax. The entitlement people think that they shouldn't be taxed, only the "rich"(they only have a vague idea of who the "rich" are)should be taxed and they(the "poor")should reap the benefits of the stolen money. so, no, they don't want taxes, they only want YOUR money.

This doesn’t even mention the tax on rental properties, 4%.

If you own rental properties, be prepared to increase the rent by up to 10%. Because all those plumbers and stuff will cost more too. When you send the note to the renters, make sure you tell them this is due to “healthcare reform”.

If the King blames the rising taxes on his favorite scapegoats than the half will instantly believe him. There need not be any logic involved.

I really do think that is a HUGE point!!!!

If it got more press you'd have every die-in-the-wool Democrat screaming from the rafters.

The leftist media would rather talk about the 10% tax on indoor tanning. Something frivilous and even kind of silly.

If an employer “provides” health insurance but the employee opts out and refuses it (incurring the fine), is the employer still liable?

The law also imposes a 40-percent tax on high-cost insurance plans reaching $10,200, but exempts union members unless the cost of their plan reaches $27,500

More some-are-more-equal-than-others treatment.

Didn’t know they were in there, of course I didn’t know that convicted sex offenders could get Viagra under the bill either. Not had to use those things in nearly 20 years!
