Taxing your Health Benefits
« on: March 15, 2009, 06:26:54 PM »
Well the Messiah is telling Congress that he will be inclined to tax employee's health benefits. One of the few non taxable items we still have. I'll bet the scum bag and his congressional court won't pay a dime on their totally free, no deductable health care for life.

I suspect this is one of those topics, like screwing with the deductibility of mortgage interest, where Congress can sense disaster ahead if they would actually try to follow the Obamessiah's deranged ravings and pass this into law.

Great way to get many smaller to mid-sized companies to stop offering health care insurance plans.

I don't think this idea is going anywhere. The unions are already screaming bloody murder.

Let's see, the asshat is bitching about how many folks don't have health insurance.  His plan....  Make it less affordable for those that do and encourage companies to stop offering it.

Great ****ing plan Zero.

It will force more into government provided healthcare. More future Democrats who have to vote for the libs to keep their benefits. He's already thrown others under the bus, maybe the unions are next.

WTF?  This was something McCain proposed during the campaign and 0Bama attacked him on it.  This clown is clueless when it comes to keeping track of his promises lies.   I can see why the unions are screaming bloody murder about this.  That would almost double the amount of "taxable income" for some people.
