Tax, penalty, or fee. It doesn't matter, what's left of the Middle Class will bear the brunt of the costs and last time I checked no one in the Middle Class is making $250k a year.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Thanks Otis. Backlash, good way to describe it. It seems there has to be enough frustration to get the changes needed. Hopefully we will see the changes made in November.

Listening to the radio, obama's advisor or press secretary was asked the question about it being a tax. he would not even give a straight answer, did the normal obama thing, talk around it and not at it. kept talking about how it would do this and that. So if the supreme court says it is legal as a tax, and the obama admin says its not, does that mean that they believe they are above the supreme court (yep)

This administration think's we're stupid and if they say it's not a tax enogh times, we should just start believing it.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
STOP THE PRESSES! The Romney campaign has had a few hours to decide not whether it's actually a tax or not, but which one plays better politically. So, IGNORE what his "Gov Etch-a-Sketch" spokesman said about it being a "penalty"... They've decided that another flip-flop is in order...So, now it's a "TAX"...(at least it is today...)
Of course, NOW they have to explain how it was a "penalty" in Massachusetts, but now it's a tax (as far as Romney is concerned)...since it's the same plan. But Gov. Flip-Flop has spoken.
(Of course, it's still a penalty... But that doesn't play as well...)
He would not even give a straight answer until today, did the normal [Romney] thing, talk around it and not at it, [and not about it]. Some things are soooo predictable.
It matters not whether it is a tax or penalty. It is an abhorrent and execrable law shoved down the American citizens' throats by the Democrats and the
Supreme Court. Let's repeal the ObamaCare/Tax and shove it up the Democrats' butts.
