Real estate sales tax
REAL ESTATE SALES TAX
http://www.spokesman.com/stories/201...-heavy-impact/
"change you can believe in"
Under the new health care bill - did you know that all real estate
transactions will be subject to a 3.8% Sales Tax? The bulk of these new taxes don't kick in until 2013 (presumably after obama's re-election). You can thank Nancy, Harry and Barack and your local Democrat Congressman for this one. If you sell your $400,000 home, there will be a $15,200 tax.
This bill is set to screw the retiring generation who often downsize their homes. Is this Hope & Change great or what? Does this stuff makes your November and 2012 votes more important?
Oh, you weren't aware this was in the obamacare bill? Guess what, you aren't alone. There are more than a few members of Congress that aren't aware of it either (result of clandestine midnight voting for huge bills they've never read). AND, there are a few other surprises lurking.
In the days leading up to the dramatic late-night vote on President Barack Obama’s health plan, Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, “We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it …” Now that ObamaCare has passed, it is slowly dawning on people what the new law means for the country and for Washington state.
ObamaCare sweeps away a host of state regulations and permanently alters our state’s insurance market. From now on, the federal government will manage the health care of all Washingtonians. The 2,700-page law contains a complex web of mandates, directives, price controls, tax increases and subsidies.
Federal officials will now decide what kind of insurance people in Washington must have, what medicines will be covered, what treatments are allowed and which are not. Early reports indicate, however, that President Obama, Vice President Biden, the Cabinet, senior members of Congress and leadership staff are exempt.
The new law falls well short of universal coverage. ObamaCare will leave about 6 percent of Washington residents without coverage. The measure is conservatively expected to cost $2.4 trillion in its first full decade. Thousands of older Washingtonians will lose their Medicare Advantage coverage, and the state’s 120,000 Health Savings Account holders may need to buy new policies or face stiff penalties.
ObamaCare will be enforced by the Internal Revenue Service. The tax agency plans to hire 16,500 new auditors, agents and investigators, and to increase enforcement audits. The IRS can confiscate tax refunds, place liens on property and seek jail time if health-related penalties and taxes are not paid.
People have the right to know the truth because an election is coming in November! Go VOTE!!!!!!!

Re: Real estate sales tax
Esther, do you research these things before you post them, or just blindly post lies? This is a 3.8 percent tax on the investment income of couples who make more than $250,000 or individuals who make more than $200,000, not a tax on all real estate transactions as your deceitful article states.
I have said it before and I will say it again: it is sad that some "Christians" need to spread lies and bear false witness to try and convince others of their political beliefs.

You could call him a liar, or you could just believe he misspoke, which is what he said he did. He meant to say that premiums for employers could go down by $3,000 annually, which was the case according to a report from the Business Roundtable, an association of big company CEOs.

You are justifying his lie?
It was clear. 3,000 percent. He said it.
Liars exagerate. Liberals say lying by means of exageration is justified to reach a goal.
He told us 10,000 people died in Greensburg kansas tornado. A town of less than 2,000 and 12 died.
Esther cut and pasted something she did not write. Yes there is tax on sale of property. On the capital gains.
But why do you fabricate a defense for Obama and his lies?
Another place he said premiums would fall $2,500 . It didn't happen and he knew it would not happen.
What is it with Unicorns?

It could be a lie. It could simply be that he misspoke. Given that he said 3000% and the real number was $3,000, there is ample room to consider he just misspoke. Neither you or I know which it was, but the simpler answer is he just misspoke.
coadie lies with unicorns.

Waxman was livid. When Caterpillar announced too much truth, he wanted to have hearings and attack them.
Now Sebelieus wants to attack insurance companiew that explain mandates that drive up premiumss. This is how communism works.
Caterpillar said their costs up 100 million dollars.

So it's just another tax on those making 200k or more?
Around now I'd be feeling really majorly screwed if I was making 200k a year and hearing all the stuff about the increased taxes and what not..Im sure someone making 1 mill or more might feel less unease though, but then again I don't know.

If you have a property that you bought for 300,000 20 years ago and sell it for 600,000 You made 300,000. After inflation, it has not gained in value but you gained a new tax bracket. You are in the 200k plus tax bracket. One of several painful points includes that you are taxed for inflation.
