It’s Not A Tax!

OK… the only legitimacy Obamacare enjoys is if it’s a tax, but it’s NOT A TAX.

So Stop saying it!  STOP IT!  STOP IT!  STOP IT!

It’s a Penalty, tax… thingy.
It’s kind of a tax with a small “t”, like the income tax if you don’t capitalize the “i” but completely different… in every way.  totally.
Yes, the IRS collects and enforces the Obamacare non-tax under the tax code and yes the only reason Obamacare is remotely constitutional is if it is a tax but… It’s NOT A TAX!.. Idiot.

Anyway… everyone knows that raising taxes, no… non-taxes, no… penalties.  Right, everyone knows that raising penalties increases private sector growth and makes 20-year olds billionaires.  The Clinton supporters have been telling us this for years.

So, the largest tax penalty increase in the history of the world is exactly what we need right now. Nothing else could spur growth and confidence in the future of our economy like a new non-tax penalty so large it is impossible for the human mind to comprehend.

But wait! There’s more!
Not only do you get all the good news and ultimate satisfaction of having MORE of your money removed from your possession by force… you get the added benefit of the dumbing down of one of the greatest medical systems in the world! (Might I remind you of the artificial heart, bone replacements, artificial blood, organ transplants, cutting edge neuroscience and brain mapping, genome mapping etc.) These things are not springing forth from the Socialist Utopias of Cuba or North Korea.

So just say “Yes We Can!” destroy superior medical care and future medical innovation.

“Yes We Can!” deter the best and brightest from viewing medicine as a way to put their kids through private school.

“Yes We Can!” make sure the multiple, competitive, legally liable, private insurance companies wont have the power to deny us care by instead giving that power to a small centralized board of unanswerable nepotistic political cronies.

“Yes We Can!”

Remember, it wont be fair until we all have crappy health care.  (Except for the Rich who will have all the current treatments and more!  They will enjoy a separate “private” level of amazing health care inaccessible to you just like in Socialist Utopian Europe.  And… the full effect of Socialized Medicine will take 20 years to feel since most doctors are trapped in their professions, but the “new” aspiring ones aren’t and will find a more lucrative way to apply their genius. Isn’t this great?!)

You get what your ability to reason leads you to.  So, what you deserve.  Unfortunately your decision effects the rest of us.

Do the rest of us a favor and try a little harder.
