This is not good for our country in many ways.

However, I think this new onslaught of taxes will be the death of ObamaCare.

Nothing worse than covering 30 million people who would not be previously covered. Horrible for our country.

Bush tax cuts won't matter anymore.

Many voted for Obama because he said he wouldn't raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000.00

I like his math.

But that should work out well for you since you stated earlier you get rewarded in your super secret farm gig you don't have to turn a profit.

There are some problems with this law, but overall it's a good start towards reforming a very broken health care system. Everyone should just relax and be grateful that Justice Roberts had a rational moment for a change.

Yes I recall. But you see Obama doesn't take questions. And no one asked for details on that.

Lately what Obama says seems to be the opposite of reality.
So read that as:

"Obama said under this bill, premiums would rise 3000%"
