ObamaTax to be Paid For on the Backs of Middle Class

FLASHBACKS:

 



 

Guess who will be paying for ObamaTax? The middle class.

From Heritage:

Obamacare imposes a penalty—or tax increase—on Americans who do not purchase health insurance. The Congressional Budget Office estimates that most of those paying these taxes are middle-class individuals and families making less than 500 percent of the federal poverty level: $59,000 for an individual and $120,000 for a family of four. Three million lower-income and middle-class Americans will pay an estimated $2 billion in these “mandate taxes.”
