    Default $1 trillion in new taxes to take effect on Jan. 1, 2014

    Remember when Obama and his cohorts were telling us that there were ZERO new taxes in Obamacare? (This was at the same time Nancy Pelosi was telling us we had to pass it in order to find out what was in it.)

    Suckers.

    The Hidden Obamacare Taxes That
    Will Crush The Middle Class

    By Money Morning Staff Reports

    Get ready to be blindsided by a barrage of new taxes. $1 trillion worth...

    They'll be coming courtesy of the Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as Obamacare. And they won't just be affecting those who make over $250,000. The bulk of these taxes will be passed on directly to the middle class.

    That's because while a majority of these "stealth taxes" were designed to be taxes on businesses, they're actually transferred directly to ordinary citizens.

    They include the investment income surtax, a Medicare payroll tax, even a "tanning tax" on those who utilize indoor tanning services.

    "Many of those [hidden] taxes, especially those on hospitals, insurers and medical device manufacturers, will ultimately be passed on through higher health costs," said Michael Tanner an expert on the healthcare law.

    In fact, analysts estimate Obamacare will cost the average taxpayer nearly $6,000 in extra taxes as early as next year.

    The new taxes go into effect January 1, 2014. But they are already infuriating millions of Americans.

    While even Obamacare detractors applaud the requirement that insurance companies cover pre-existing conditions and put a stop to lifetime caps on benefits, they say these laudable benefits don't compensate for the bills high cost - especially in new taxes.

    According to most experts, Obamacare will create a total of twenty new taxes or tax hikes on the American people.

    In fact, the Obama administration has already given the IRS an extra $500 million to enforce the rules and regulations of Obamacare.

    But..........

    But...........

    Obama promised if you make less then $200,000/yr nobody would pay a dime more in taxes

    Oh wait - it is a trillion more in taxes - so he did not lie or break his promise


    (that will be the logic of the liberal media and the Obama lap dogs to defend these "revenue enhancements")

    Anyone who read the majority of the bill, or studied it at all, already knew this was coming.

    I don't remember that. I remember the lie that it wouldn't increase the deficit... or some such thing.

    Troof! And a few more prevarications as well.

    EDIT:

    And I think the CBO scored it as reducing the deficit by $90BB over 10 years... Good times, good times...

    The CBO's estimates have changed, sometimes it seems monthly.

    Do you WANT to remember any of the statements Obama made, such as the "95% of American families WILL SEE NO INCREASES IN TAXES" ?

    AT, it is sad to see so many people with Selective Memory Loss when it comes to their Messiah Obama. But thanks to Al Gore's Amazing internet we have the video

    Of course, some of the Obama lap dogs may rant how this is edited video and Obama never said what he said

    One way some Obama lap dogs get around this is to refer to the taxes as fees

    That seems to make a difference to some on the left - for some unknown reason

    Can't wait till the Obama lap dogs, and members of the STUPID SOCIETY OF LIBERAL DEPENDENTS begin to pay those HIGHER Fee's, while, at the same time. They have been convinced Obama is keeping his word about NO HIGHER TAXES.

    So much for his------

    "I can make a firm pledge."
    Lying scum will say anything to get what he wants, such a man with no honor has been deemed to be a great man and a great leader. No great leader ever existed that had the characteristics/lack of integrity that Obama has . That is dem standards ,principles and scruples for you America.

    I was responding to a reference specifically about zero taxes in Obamacare. Did they ever make that claim?
