Obamacare to unleash crushing new taxes, trillions in debt, huge job losses, and it doesn't even cover natural medicine

(NaturalNews) By now, we all know the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the individual mandate portion of Obamacare by declaring it a "tax." This is, in essence, a declaration that the federal government now has unlimited power to force consumers to spend some (or even all) of their take-home pay on various products, services or even intellectual property that they have no interest in buying in the first place. It is a concentration of economic power in the hands of the federal government, and it suddenly ends economic liberty in America.

It's also the largest tax increase in the history of the United States. By upholding Obamacare's individual mandate as a "tax," Chief Justice Robert just labeled President Obama the largest tax increase President in the history of the country!

21 new taxes on Americans
The high court's ruling leaves in place 21 tax increases in the health-care law costing more than $675 billion over the next 10 years, according to the House Ways and Means Committee. Of those, 12 tax hikes would affect families earning less than $250,000 per year, the panel said, including a "Cadillac tax" on high-cost insurance plans, a tax on insurance providers, and an excise tax on medical device manufacturers

The US simply cannot have an NHS, it won't work on the scale of that country (unless the govt was printing its own money of course...)

The way I see it, is that they are merely going to be subsidizing insurance companies to sort it all anyway!

Everyone should be able to afford health insurance tbh, at the end of the day wages suck.

If they started firing the ass wipers they have at the white house, stopped paying ex presidents, cut wages for congress AND the white house (president and staff) down to regular wages instead of 100+K USD a year they could probably afford to pay off their debt (as the public did not spend it) as well as provide a health care system.

Heh, well it'd save some money alright but it'd be well short of the figure needed for a US NHS setup, we're talking trillion dollar plus territory.

However....the 2 trillion that disappeared the day before 911, now thats different
