Saw this being talked about on another fourm but didn’t see anything about it being passed… Anyone have any info about a tattoo tax per healthcare bill?

stopped reading when i looked at the date, thats 2 and a half years old. my guess is its dead, because if it passed we would know about it. i did read the first paragraph and it seemed like it was written by a moron. the reason we don’t know about things until they pass isn’t because they are a secret but because nobody (including legislatures) have enough time to read up on everything that hits a committee or even the floor.

^2.5 years ago puts it right at obamacare, and 99% of those new policies don’t hit till 2013 so I would believe it’s true

The list of fees is larger than the list of taxes… hold on for the ride…2014-2018… Most arent “google” searchable yet… but , one can read the bills and another can look at the number of new regulations and executive orders that empower the ability to assess fees.

at this rate there will be a tax soon for people who are into performance cars. and a tax for any activity you plan on attending.

i mean atleast obama leads me to believe this.
