If It Looks Like Tax, Sounds Like A Tax and Works Like A Tax, It Has to Be A Tax?

~ The Rebel ~ 2012/07/03 19:02:07

I’m sure most of you have heard the old adage that if it looks like a duck, walks like duck and sounds like a duck that it must be a duck. Well, the same is true about the individual mandate penalty of Obamacare, but Barack Obama is calling it a pig instead of a duck.

We’ve read how Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts changed his mind at the last minute and voted with the liberal judges to preserve Obamacare in its entirety, including the individual mandate. Roberts said that individual mandate was unconstitutional in the framework of regulating interstate commerce as the Obama administration had argued, but that it was constitutional because it was a tax and that Congress has the right to levy a tax.

Chief Justice Roberts called it a tax. It is to be handled by the IRS as a tax.

    Rebel, perhaps you can take my idea and decide whether to make it into an Article, I only see this during my morning Coffee and don't have the time.


    HAS THE DOLLAR AND THE WORDS ON IT GONE AWAY?

    If I choose not to have health insurance, then go see a Dr, do I have the

    RIGHTS SO MENTIONED ON THE DOLLAR BILL?


    It says, "LEGAL TENDER FOR ALL DEBTS, PUBLIC AND PRIVATE." (Hope this is right)

    My credit ratings have been at the top and nothing says I would not pay the bill.

    Put that in your own words and I will see where you go with it, am I wrong?

    Thanks and keep up the great work whether you take this one or not.

    Are you talking about that oversized monopoly money that we use today? It might be 'legal tender' but it's backed by nothing.

    Not according to the brain dead like Obama, Pelosi, Carney and even now...Romney. Only in America can it walk like a duck and quack like a duck and the Democrats call it a moose.

    OweBlamerDoesn'tCare is a tax. That means it can be repealed if the Republicans win the POTUS, House and Senate on Novmber 6th. Vote for the GOP in 2012

    And if it's a tax, and wasn't voted on by Congress (ALL of Congress), then it's illegal.
    The President may not put in place taxes. He may propose them, but unless Congress votes on and passes them, they do not exist.

    So why does Obama continue to refuse to call it a tax?

    Because he promised to never raise the taxes of middle class Americans and he claims he still hasn’t. However, Obamacare is the largest single tax increase in the history of the United States and according to a number of economic analysts and experts, the majority of that tax increase will fall on the Middle Class.

    OBlamer will try to not address this embarrassing major issue at all during the upcoming campaign, He has some very serious issues to answer to the voters this year.
