While we were all debating the cost to our liberty due to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), we were ignoring the cost to our pockets. If there ever was a reason for bipartisan rage about this law, it should be on the twenty - yes, twenty - hidden new taxes of this law. Making matters even more relevant is that seven of these taxes are levied on all citizens regardless of income. Hence, Mr. Obama’s promise not to raise taxes on anyone earning less than $250,000 is just another falsehood associated with this legislation.
Of course, the leeches aren't worried since they don't pay FIT and the rich (Soros, Al Gore, the Hollywood elite, etc) aren't worried because it's just peanuts to them. But millions of hard working Americans will get hit by these tax increases and don't have the extra cash to pay them.

Well, the only thing there that affects me is the tax on cadillac health plans, which doesn't kick in until 2018 for my wifes plan because she is in a public union. Her employer will sort that out by restructuring her already lucrative salary structure, so I'm not really worried. Next.

Nobody said that the taxes would affect ALL Americans. But millions of workers should start saving up.
Put these taxes along with the Obama cuts which might expire for all and that could be some big revenue for Uncle Sam next year. With the Obama cuts though, once they expire they are gone for good.
With that uncertainty I had one stock that had some huge gains.
So I did a wash on it..sold it and then bought it back at a slightly lower price.
Now my cost basis is higher and I'll be paying 15% on the cap gains from the sale.
For me there was a $6000 difference in taxes if they got raised next year.
I'd rather that $6K stay in my bank account then the Treasury.

You didn't quote correctly in #3, and there are other categories such as "Americans who have saved enough to pay for their health care".
