They say the only two certain things in life are death and
taxes. A new piece from my colleague
Hadley Heath Manning at The Blaze argues that ObamaCare is
clear proof that Democrats are willing to hike taxes - especially on the middle
class:
If America is going to expand entitlements to European
levels, government will have to greatly
increase taxes on middle-class Americans, as well. In fact,
we already have proof that entitlement expansions mean taxing the middle class
- we need look no further than ObamaCare.
Like today's candidates, President Barack Obama famously
promised not to raise taxes on the middle class or anyone who earns less than
$250,000 annually. But at least seven of the taxes
included in the Affordable Care Act will directly hit this
group. From the beginning, ObamaCare has been a major deception. We were promised that if we liked our plan,
we could keep our plan. Then millions
saw their plans cancelled. We were told if we like our
doctor, we could keep our doctor. Then, we discovered doctor
networks were being limited under ObamaCare.
We were told ObamaCare would bend the cost curve down, but
we've seen health care costs and insurance premiums increase. And now, we know
that the middle
class will bear a heavy part of the tax burden for this
terrible law. We need real healthcare reform
that makes it affordable for all Americans. And we won't have that until ObamaCare is
repealed entirely.
