Several of the med-tech companies that are scrapping jobs say the 2.3% medical device excise tax in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act...

Democrats told us the primary purpose of the vaunted Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was to reduce the cost of healthcare.

Imposing new taxes on medical devices is certainly an odd way of reducing costs, however.

Probbly the most cold-blooded, stupid thing I have ever heard of is taxing the handicapped for their wheelchairs , walkers, & potty chairs.

Obama’s made up war against women is nothing compared to Obama’s war against the handicapped, the aged, the infirm.

Does America really need the monay so badly we tax those already in trouble because of failing health?

Nancy —is this what you meant when you said pass it to find out what is in it?

Didn't Democrats also say that it was a "jobs bill"?
