The thing is, American people understand a tax. They understand it very well. It's the reason why liberals were so desperately clear in making sure everyone knew this wasn't a tax. And now it comes back at them as a tax. A tax on breathing, on being a person. To the most liberal, eh, who cares. To the rest of America; you just taxed the heck out of me? Here's the door!
I know morons who still think ObamaCare will be giving them free health care in 2014. There is simply a huge swath of citizens who are hopelessly stupid. When they hear “tax”, they are going keep assuming that it’s taxes on the rich. And they’ll all be voting in November to further enable Obama.
