It's not just millionaires who'd pay more under President Obama's latest plan to combat the deficit.
Air travelers, federal workers, military retirees, wealthier Medicare beneficiaries and people taking out new mortgages are among those who would pay more than $130 billion in government revenues raised through new or increased fees.

Link does not work right.
Relax man, this is NOT going to pass the House or Senate!
Obama doesn't give a rat's rear end about ombatting the deficit - but this DOES give him an excuse to raise taxes, which has always been his goal.
How about privatizing airport security, ditch the TSA altogether.
“Why (would) the administration ... propose a Social Security payroll tax holiday in its jobs bill, but simultaneously suggest a tax increase for middle-class federal workers?” asked Joseph Beaudoin, president of the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association. :
Because he’s a lying SOS. Wow military retirees get the millionaire treatment. And Airline passengers, well now you pay to get some stranger to feel you.
This administration is WAY OUT OF CONTROL.
They remind me of the 6th grader that takes daddy’s car and drives and high speeds swerving aimlessly on the road.
This 6th grader is the voice of some controlling group of commies probably
all over the world and he was hatched to do their bidding to bring the world down to a one world government. Tear it all down. Easier to start over that way.
Well their little commie coup attempt is set to fail. What rock will they crawl under after the smoke clears.
Hopefully it will never happen.
I believe it. Nearly any congressman that voted for doing this to military retirees wouldn’t have to face defeat in the next election—they’d be recalled.
Military retirees would pay a $200 fee upon turning 65 to have the government pay their out-of-pocket Medicare expenses.
I could live with that, because it's a moot point. Will there be a government to pay my military retirement and medicare when I turn 65?
Sorry but you have not heard Buffets companies are under investigation for failure to pay over 1B as in billion dollars in back taxes...Notice he never mentions that fact....Another limousine liberal

And then go a step further. Change any employee of BATFE with murder or accessory before or after. Charge any employee of the EPA with crimes against humanity. Charge any employee of Education with child abuse. Charge any employee...
Which is a crime in most states.
Seems to me he should be happy with sexually molesting the air line passengers and not feel the need to shake them down, too.
And penalizing the military retirees (whites) is a snazzy community organizer idea.
He’s also targeting medicare again. Kill them ole white people.
sad thing is, $130 billion is one month’s overspendindg
we spend about $130 billion more every month, than revenues come in
so, what and who comes next?
