A good explanation of the Obamacare tax structure.

Let's see; There were what, 30 million uninsured if you believe that number? The main purpose of "Health Care Reform" was to insure these people. Oh, and to reduce unemployment by lowering health care costs. Right. The Affordable Care Act will at a minimum cost 1 trillion dollars. That's about 33 K per uninsured life. Quite a bargain. It's a sugar coated turd that needs to be repealed.

Well put, but there are many here that can't see it that way...because well, it's so unfair.

Seems the taxes are all the rage up in DC. What the hell happened? I swear there is so much that could be cut before any taxes need to be implemented. Obama care would definately be the first on my personal chopping block.

Pass ****ty legislation in the name of greater good for forward progress. Evil Republicans come along to change it + blame they want to kill poor people = party profit for years to come. People don't read bills/laws any more, they only look to what the news organizations tell them.

I think you're a bit off on your math...1,000,000,000,000/30,000,000= 33,333.33... still a lot when you take into account that the so called Cadillac plans are around $10,000.

The US population is around 330 million and all this money for an alledged 30 million uninsured. Priceless.

Each of McD's and other fast food restaurants estimated it would cost between 10k and 20k annual for EACH franchise. Do the math on that.
