Nothing to look at here folks. The House cannot defund when the funding is being done outside of the normal appropriations process.


Obama administration diverts $500M to IRS to implement healthcare reform law - The Hill's Healthwatch


Quote:
The Obama administration is quietly diverting roughly $500 million to the IRS to help implement the president’s healthcare law.

The money is only part of the IRS’s total implementation spending, and it is being provided outside the normal appropriations process. The tax agency is responsible for several key provisions of the new law, including the unpopular individual mandate.

You'd think this might be on hold until June, when the whole thing is ruled unconstitutional. But, hey, "Can't Wait to Waste Our Money!"

Heck no, Obama is ramping up his shadow government in full gear.

The IRS will also administer the most expensive piece of the new law — subsidies to help low-income people pay for insurance, which are structured as tax credits. The agency asked Congress to fund another 537 new employees dedicated to administering the new subsidies.

A prudent, non-radical President would wait until the Supreme Court made a ruling on the Affordable Care Act before spending $500M.

None of us should be surprised that Obama has no intention of doing the right thing by the American taxpayer. His entire record is exactly the opposite of what's right and just when it comes to spending taxpayer dollars.

What does your health care have to do with the I.R.S. [Internal Revenue Service] Asked another way, what does a revenue collection service have to do with the health care you receive from medical people?

The mandate/penalty is considered a "tax" as it is presently being defended.

I can't imagine why you would not know what this, oh yeah, you don't know what's in the Law.

Why the IRS gets half of health reform’s implementation dollars |

Oh, BTW, there is $500 million more ..

It's always about the funds. If you read the monster bill you will find all kind of fun stuff in it.

Not surprised by this.
