Obama Levies the Largest Tax Increase in History

With Obamacare being "temporarily" upheld...the largest tax increase in world history has now been thrust upon the American people. The court has justified it standing because in their view "the government is allowed to tax the people".

Let's hope one of two things happen.

1. It is repealed quickly.
2. The poor are have to pay the brunt of the taxes.

You can keep your taxes high, or you can lower them... Now it's up to you, America

How funny! I know you disagree with the Democrats and liberals, but this is so wrong.
"Since the Supreme Court decision, Republicans have been calling the "Affordable Care Act “the largest tax increase in the history of the world.” Politifact rates this false. Kevin Drum’s got a table of the 15 significant tax increases since 1950, and the Affordable Care Act, which amounts to a tax increase of 0.49 percent of GDP, comes in 10th. Austin Frakt took Drum’s table and made a chart:ww.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/wp/2012/07/02/no-obamacare-isnt-the-largest-tax-increase-in-the-history-of-the-world-in-one-chart/

I agree, Eddie. I was beside myself with Roberts but his decision but I guess I get what he is saying. We the people are the ones that must change what we don't like. I don't see how any kind of purchasing mandate, regardless of what it is for, is constitutional, but that's just my feeble opinion.

The people are the ones who are to blame for this mess we are in and the people are the ones who have to fix it. It is just that simple.

It's the same everywhere ....well 'Here in the UK' too! We're all suffering after the European bail-outs!!! Voting - PffffT!! In an "ideal" world we could have our say, but it'll never happen!

The repealers failed. Justly so. Let's move on. Edwards on the high court finally redeemed himself. As for the mandate, as a taxpayer who is insured, I would like not to have my taxes increased because working young people who think they will not get sick, rely on ER services and their care is absorbed financially by the system. However, I am willing to have the system subsidize the poor and I don't think my tax dollars are wasted there.

I don't want anything subsidized...poor or not! I want to choose where my money goes.

I am just doing a bait and switch like Obama did with the "health care bill".
