Middle-class taxpayers on Obamacare learn that it’s payback time (Pelosi knew)

Roberta and Curtis Campbell typically look forward to tax time. Most years, they receive a refund – a little extra cash to pay off credit card bills. But this year the California couple got a shock: According to their tax preparer, they owe the IRS more than $6,000.

That’s the money the Campbells received from the federal government last year to make their Obamacare health coverage more affordable.

Roberta, unemployed when she signed up for the plan, got a job halfway through the year and Curtis found full-time work. The couple’s total yearly income became too high to qualify for federal subsidies. Now they have to pay all the money all back.

This is why the IRS new story of lost e-mails will be effective and get people’s attention.....because its almost APRIL 15th!

The criminals are using the government and it’s power against it’s own people

To all the middle class Californian: welcome to the party pal.

If you supported the clowns that gave us this monstrosity, you deserve any pain that derives from it. I have no patience for your whining and complaining now. My heart goes out to those who had this excrement sandwich shoved down their throats.

2010: Sob! Wailing! Gnashing of teeth! There are 324,870,000 uninsured who can’t get insurance or health care. Do something!

2015: OMG! There are 284,123,450 who have to give their free healthcare money back! Oh, the injustice of it all! Do something!

Steyn said back in ‘09 that once you pass nationalized healthcare, all that is ever talked about thence forward is how to fix the broken system and restore health justice and equality. Here we go.

So, if the Campbell's don't pay the $6,000 what happens? Eventually the IRS will collect it, with interest and penalties. How does a low income couple come up with $6,000? What if they lose their jobs again? They are forced by law to "buy" health insurance.

It sounds like the federal government has discovered a way to place people into perpetual serfdom. The founding fathers are spinning.

Thou shalt not steal. Those who accept Obamacare subsidies are stealing from taxpayers. I’m okay with those who support this law suffering the consequences of their evil actions.

——According to their tax preparer-——

My question is why did they spend money on a tax preparer? Had they done their own taxes, they might not have calculated they owed anything.

My wife and I have always gotten a refund of a couple thousand. This year we pay $1300. Thanks president Jug Ears!

And, sadly, not a damn thing will be done about it. This administration can do whatever they want with impunity.

It sounds like the federal government has discovered a way to place people into perpetual serfdom.

That was done by the Amendment XVI.

The IRS can only take what’s due from future refunds.

I do not feel sorry for anyone who voted Obama.

The Campbell’s just woke up and realized they picked their own pocket.

Were you on this healthcare, or was it a different situation?

[USNBandit]

A really good point. The IRS cannot recover these owed amounts through garnishment or liens.

The downside it that they will charge interest and the IRS charges interest like a loan shark.

The "subsidies" were illegal and unconstitutional.

Judas Roberts is a traitor.
