This is the third place winner in the video contest held by the Independent Women’s Voice. In this one, a seven-year-old is called on the phone by an anonymous IRS agent and told the price tag (i.e. the accumulated debt) that she and each of her contemporaries will be burdened with in the cause of “free health care.” He tells her she owes $127,000 and […]
Health Care BS
Category Archives: Tax BS
HOUSE VOTES TO DEFUND NPR. OK, FINE. BUT WHAT ABOUT OBAMACARE?
This is good:
The House of Representatives on Thursday voted 228-192 on a bill to defund National Public Radio, the vast public radio network whose leadership has been questioned after a series of executive decisions about programming, staffing and reporting bias.
It’s not OK to force conservative and libertarian taxpayers to fund an outfit that uses the money to make fun of […]
VIDEO: THE TRUTH ABOUT REDISTRIBUTION
President Obama’s recess-appointed Administrator of CMS famously said that “any healthcare funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized and humane, must redistribute wealth …” That sounds very noble until you consider that it means authorizing the central government to use violence against people who disagree. This video from Reason TV really drives that point home:

FLORIDA JUDGE ROGER VINSON RULES THAT ANTI-OBAMACARE LAWSUIT CAN GO FORWARD
UPDATE ADDED BELOW ON JUDGE VINSON’S JANUARY 31 DECISION TO STRIKE DOWN PPACA
U.S. District Judge Roger Vinson has dealt the Obama DOJ a major defeat in the case brought by twenty state attorneys general challenging the power of Congress to pass a law requiring everyone to buy health insurance.
One of the most important parts of […]
POTUS, DOJ AND THE OCARE TAX FLIP-FLOP
If you want to know why the major bird cage liners are begging for government subsidies to stop their slide into bankruptcy, this piece in the NYT pretty much tells the tale:
When Congress required most Americans to obtain health insurance or pay a penalty, Democrats denied that they were creating a new tax. But in court, the […]
OBAMA OFFICIALS CONSIDER TURNING AWAY PATIENTS WITH PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS
Remember all that stuff the President said about how Obamacare was going to cover people with pre-existing conditions? Well, if you were one of the few who actually believed that BS, I recommend this article:
The Obama administration has not ruled out turning sick people away from an insurance program created by the new healthcare law to provide coverage […]
VIDEO: BIDEN BUSTED BY SHOP MGR ON TAXES
I guess it was expected to be one those “regular Joe” photo ops, but the manager of Kopps Custard saw it as an opportunity to bug Biden about high tax rates. When Biden asked how much he owed for the custard, the manager replied that it was one the house, but he would be willing […]
PA RADIO AD CALLS TAXPAYERS “CRIMINALS”
No … really. That’s what it says. This radio ad from the PA Dept. of Revenue is even creepier than the TV ad I posted a couple of days ago. This is how they “encourage” the citizens of Pennsylvania to pay their taxes:
We are going to make your life VERY complicated … You are going to […]
CREEPY VIDEO: STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA TELLS TAXPAYERS “WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE”
Whenever the voters are foolish enough to put Democrats in power, two things inevitably happen: They create all manner of expensive entitlements, and then they start leaning on the taxpayers to cough up.
In service of the latter, the state of PA produced this creepy ad for what it calls “tax amnesty.” Note the none-to-subtle threat to put tax liens […]
VIDEO: IS THE GOVT BANKRUPTING AMERICA?
One reason the President and his congressional accomplices must be given the bum’s rush as quickly as possible is that they ACTUALLY BELIEVE they can pay for Obamacare and their other entitlement programs by raising taxes.
Even if this were fair to American workers, the math doesn’t work. As this video explains, the government has already committed to $106 trillion in future […]
