Five Hidden Obamacare Taxes that Crush the Middle Class

[Thepaindispenser]

Exactly Riot, the more we find out about Obamacare the more we know how much Obama lied about it. Reducing the deficit and covering more people, what a filthy liar. My premiums have already shot up and it hasn't even kicked in yet. Not only that, the quality of my care, or at least what I can afford, has already diminished. Why do you think Obama made sure it wouldnt kick in until after the 2012 election? Why has he granted waivers to his biggest donors? If the law was so great, wouldn't he want it up and running before the election? If it is so great why all the waivers for his big donor pals. I reiterate, you make no sense.

Please point out where I said Sebelius has discretion over financing because I can't seem to find it in my post.

Reading you is like a stream-of-conciousness mainline from Freepers Fearville of Lies.

It's so sad you believe that.

It was where you said,

"Do you realize how much of it is left up to the discretion of Kathleen Sebelius and the rest of her dictatorship board? You really make no sense."

Again, where does it say discretion over financing?

Nice try with Nancy Pelosi, she is an elitist piece of garbage, who thinks that we should trust her liberal politician pals and her to make laws where there is no transpency during the process and that don't apply to them. If Obamacare is so great, why doesn't apply to members of Congress and Obama? Why did Obama lie so much about being transparent during the process?

You put that sentence directly into a reply about the financing of the ACA. Duh.

You are simply incapable of talking politics. You can only spew your hate venom. Done with you. Blech.

You just can't take it that you can no longer get away with your bullying and lies on this board.

Again, I still don't see where I said Sebelius has control over financing.

Riot: "These [ the financing of the ACA ] are not "hidden", as they were all outlined in detail and discussed publicly when the Affordable Care Act was passed two years ago."

Lil' Sockpuppet: "They were all outlined in detail??? Even Nancy Pelosi said they needed to pass it to find out what was in it. Do you realize how much of it is left up to the discretion of Kathleen Sebelius and the rest of her dictatorship board? You really make no sense. "

Smacks palm on forehead! Of course! What in the world would your last sentence, about "it", have to do with the subject of your paragraph and what we are discussing - the financing of the ACA!

Why in the WORLD could anyone assume that? It's crazy, I tell you! Crazy!

Really, I can't believe how you survive, with all this bullying and lies. You poor, poor thing!

an excerpt:

A Big Increase

There’s no question that the package of taxes and other revenue-raisers (lol nice euphemism for tax) that the law contains constitute a large increase. The most recent estimate from the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation puts the total for more than a dozen different tax increases and other “revenue-related provisions” at $675 billion between now and 2022.

And that’s not counting the effect of penalty payments by individuals who refuse to take out health insurance (estimated by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office to be $54 billion over the same period. The JCT tax estimate also doesn’t count penalties paid by large employers (those with 50 employees or more). CBO estimates they will pay $113 billion during the period, rather than provide insurance coverage for their workers.



and then there's this at the end:

“[i]f both the premium and the penalty are considered a tax (and the scotus evidently considers it so, witness the ruling), the mandate becomes the largest tax increase in U.S. history,” writes Merrill Matthews, a conservative commenter on the Forbes.com website.

Hence paying for itself... All of that and raping providers (read caregivers, hospitals and Dr.s) of course.
