Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act? Really?
So now it’s not a penalty but instead it is a tax? Does it bother you to recall how our president repeatedly argued against it being a tax and then sent his attorneys into the highest court in the land to argue that it was indeed a tax? Do you remember the pledge: “Not one dime of tax increases if you make less than $250,000 a year?” How about the Nebraska Kickback and the Louisiana Purchase? Do you remember them? Do you remember how it passed the Senate on Christmas Eve and then passed the House on a Sunday using parliamentary trickery?
