Broken Promise: Obama Raising Taxes On Middle Class (unemployment, Congress, wages)

[jt800]

$4-$6.5 Billion dollars of new taxes......$1 - $1.5 Billion of them on ALL WORKING PEOPLE!!!

Business owners will pay $4 billion more in taxes under President Obama’s Affordable Care Act (ACA) than the Congressional Budget Office had previously expected.

............

In short, CBO revised the Obamacare tax burden upward by $4 billion for businesses and $1 billion to $1.5 billion for individual workers.

I thought Obama said that no one earning under $250,000.00 would see their taxes go up?

Those "individual workers" I'm sure aren't 1%ers.......but their taxes will be raised.

How does this even make any sense?......

Lower class people and younger people just starting out cannot afford to buy insurance.

So you take more of their wages to pay for your wonderful Obamacare.

Then you hit them with a tax-penalty every year because they can't afford the insurance.

Exactly how is that helping those who have lower incomes?

Remember those 400,000 JOBS Pelosi said Obamacare would create IMMEDIATELY???

Were those just the extra new IRS agents to enforce the TAX?

"The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president."

-Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, quoted in National Journal, November 4, 2010

You seem to think that the president sits there in the Oval Office, sends out proclamations, and Congress just hops to it and sees it done. Either you have a very childish understanding of how government works or you know better but simply enjoy obfuscation.

Where does your reply RELATE at all to the 400,000 jobs that Pelosi said passing Obamacare would create or the promise broken about raising middle class taxes?

Does it surprise you that a Republican wants to see Obama join the 8.2% of Americans without a job?

PS: The Democrats DID PASS Obamacare and that was one of the many promises that were made about it.

Oh no!! A lie told by Obama?!?!?! The horror!! The outrage!! It can't be! Saint Obama would never tell a lie.

Can't say anything bad about him though, or else I'll be called a racist.

In July 2012 45,000 more people lost their jobs., and are actively looking for work. This increases the unemployment rate to 8.3%.



If you want Obama to keep his job, you better be prepared to lose your job.

If you want to keep your job, you better hope Obama loses his.

I'm shocked to learn that candidates don't keep every promise.
Shocked. I think this is a first.

But I trust Mitt. He's going to balance the budget and add 250,000 jobs a month, every month he's President.
