As if the nationalization of your health care weren’t enough reason to hate ObamaCare, here’s a big one: ObamaCare imposes a tax on our nation’s defenders for prosthetics!
According to the Americans for Tax Reform:
The health care overhaul passed by Congress and signed into law by President Obama earlier this year contains a new tax on medical devices such as prosthetic limbs, pacemakers, and wheelchairs. This tax, which its proponents claim will raise $20 billion over the next ten years, contains no exemption for the nation’s 22 million veterans. In fact, Senate Democrats specifically refused to exempt veterans from the tax.
At what point do the Democrats throw away the facade of being for America?
So, let’s just name names, shall we?
Here are, according to ATR, those senators putrefied, Beelzeubub’s bum-kissing boors who voted to tax our nation’s veterans for their prosthetics.
