    Congress Prepares $100 Million Bipartisan Flu Tax

    Congress is preparing to take action on a bipartisan proposal to raise taxes on flu vaccines. This is not a tax on the wealthy, but rather on a broad swath of Americans, or at least those who choose to be immunized against the flu.   In February, identical bills were introduced in the House and Senate to add seasonal flu vaccines to the IRS code as taxable. The legislation would … [Read More...]

    Top Ten ObamaCare Horror Stories the Media Are Covering Up

    Because the mainstream media lobbied every bit as hard as Obama to win passage of ObamaCare, they are every bit as invested in doing whatever is necessary to see that it is perceived as a success. Unfortunately for Americans who expect truth from their media, this means the media are having to manufacture a false reality that says ObamaCare is, to steal a phrase, "doing fine." In order to … [Read More...]

    The lie that is ObamaCare – Nearly as big a lie as Obama himself!

    To no avail I wrote approximately twenty-five or thirty blog postings published at the Florida Times-Union in Jacksonville, Florida during the year 2009 concerning the Democrats attempt to destroy the best healthcare in the world.  I pointed out many times that Obama and the Democrats were merely making a power grab, that "IT" was not about healthcare at all, but about brute power over … [Read More...]

    Obamacare and the Medicaid Expansion: How Does Your State Fare?
