(I should clarify that I have an average Joe Blow job and am not smooching off the government!!) So I'm not going to shed a tear for those making $200,000 + getting taxed a little more. [/quote] If I lived with my parents and ate their food, I would agree with you. You obviously don't have children either. Point is, I work hard for my money, I don't want to give it to a corrupt gov who will waste it on Obama vacations. [/quote] and they buy votes with it. for everyone who works for the government, to vote against big, expensive government is a vote against themselves so there are more and more government leeches and again less producers. even government workers who pay taxes are taking taxpayer money and paying some of it back to the government in a never ending cycle of dependence. name one thing that the government produces on its own? (not you specifically, the question is rhetorical) [/quote] opium industry: you will have to Google this because godlike has banned all the links i have on this: "Fighting And Dying In Afghanistan For Opium”: [/quote]

Congress approved US President Barack Obama’s hallmark health care bill nearly three years ago, but only in the coming weeks will Americans finally start to see the real price of the program.
A whole new slew of taxes are expected to be imposed starting January 1 to help pay for the health care plan, and that isn’t sitting pretty with some high-income households, or even the medical industry.
There will be a few new changes in 2013 as far as taxes go, but the one that might affect the most people is one that targets income investments. Individuals making more than $200,000 annually (and married couples making over $250k combined) will be subjected to a 3.8 percent levy on investment income, a maneuver that it expected to earn Uncle Sam an extra $123 billion between the first of the year and 2019.
