An Historic Day For America
President Obama’s health care law has been found to be
constitutional. But it comes at a price
for the President.
Barack Obama promised explicitly not to raise taxes on
Americans who made less than a quarter of a million dollars a year. But now, the signature legislation of the
President’s term will require tens of millions of Americans to pay thousands of
dollars in health care insurance premiums as a tax.
That violates the president’s promise and, as
far as im concerned, it violates the liberty of Americans. At the same time, the supreme court ruled
that the part of the law that expands Medicaid is unconstitutional. Which means that 30 million folks who thought
they would be covered won’t be.
Now the
president has to decide if he’s willing to defend one of the biggest tax
increases on average folks that any President has ever imposed. All after promising
not to increase taxes; as he put it, not one dime.
If you call that a victory, then lets see how
he explains it to voters in the next five months. The polls say that a majority of Americans
already don’t like ObamaCare. Now what will they say when they find out it comes
with thousands in taxes.
