10 New Taxes To Pay For Healthcare
Taxes that will be passed down to you:
So-called Cadillac plans -- any employer sponsored plan that costs more than $8,500 per year -- will face a 40% additional marginal tax.
Taking money out of your Health Savings Account early, for non-medical purposes, will get you slapped with a 20% tax. That's up from 10% now.
Big pharmaceutical manufacturers will face a $2.3 billion annual "assessment."
Device makers, like the maker of this pacemaker, will face a $2 billion annual tax
Love your flexible spending account? What you can donate to it is capped at $2500 per year. Previously, there was no cap.
Health insurers will get hit with a new $6.7 billion annual fee.
If your employer pays for your drugs, but you're eligible for Medicare Part D, that's no longer tax deductible.
Want a nose job or a boob job? Uncle Sam will take 5% off the top
Are you rich and going to the hospital? That will cost you 0.5% extra.
Health insurance providers will face lower tax deductibility.

Let's see again how much drug and insurance companies are spending on lobbying.
ReplyDeletewho gives a crap whats in this bill.... millions of people across this country will NOT be purchasing healthcare insurance, and i can't wait to see how surprised the FEDS are at how finally, millions of former sheep will stand up to them and say " screw you, O, congressman and senators".... just try and come arrest me...... i'm waiting.... :) :P
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't matter if you want healthcare insurance or not. You will be billed monthly and if you don't pay it your wages will be garnished and the hidden tax will be in everything that is consumable. Can you say " expensive"? You won't be hearing the word "cheap" any more.
ReplyDeleteIf you voted Democrat, you are to blame.
ReplyDeleteif you voted for bush you are the main problem
ReplyDeleteIf you voted for Democrat or Republican, YOU are the blame.
ReplyDeleteThere is not a dime's worth of difference between the two parties.
Democrats "tax and spend", Republicans "borrow and spend".
Ron Paul is the only congressman that has for 35 years consistently voted according to the U.S. Constitution.
Now it is too late to save the country. The best you can do is prepare for the coming Great Depression and Federal (Yankee) control of all aspects of your life.
