Oh, I’m sure there is some loophole, and judges bought and paid for who would side with the leftists.
It’s sickening what congress won’t stop.

True, except that it is now abundantly clear that there are no cajones in Congress to stop him.

Well, Hell—the Usurper first stated that there were a lot of things he wanted to do ... so then there was short period he waited, but after no challenges from the GOP-e to this trial balloon, he just started doing them.
And after GOP-e throat clearing and harrumphing, and more harrumphing, and nothing done in regards to plainly unconstitutional actions of the executive branch actually passing laws and exercising the power-of-the-purse, as well as nothing done to hold Holder, Koskinen, Lerner, Clapper & Co. responsible for their lies and malfeasance, and on-and-on ...
Q: What’s to prevent him from confiscating savings accounts, 401Ks, IRAs, retirment accounts, etc.—which basically is what raising taxes by executive fiat entails?
(Keep in mind that socialists don’t actually fail until they run out of other people’s money.)
Answer: Nothing, certainly not the GOP-e’s circumspect, moderate and quite politic Brave Sir Robins.

Constitutional scholar, my hindquarters. We learned where taxing authority was vested in Civics class.
To: jazusamo
Sure. Heck, he can repeal or add any number of Amendments, too, just by Executive Action.
In fact, he should just appoint himself King, by Executive Action.
Aint like anyone's gonna stop him.

Is there really any way for the president to do this? Arent tax rates and how taxes are levied straightforward and not subject to executive decrees??? I would be shocked if a president can legally increase the tax rate, or change tax exemptions or deductions by executive decree.You have NOT been paying attention.

"
hes not a usurper"
He's very much a usurper.
Problem is, not enough people care about it or are even educated enough in the history to know about it.

Our government just had a record year in tax revenues and it’s still not enough for these oxygen thieves in congress. Please tell me again how raising taxes will fix everything.

Will no one rid us of this troublesome usurper?
I'm with you. Just think in one week he's tried to ban 5.56mm NATO ammo and got his way with "net neutrality." I ran into Jim Quinn, the talkshow host, in a department store and while I was ringing him up, he said the same thing as you and me and even said that if the "Republicans we elected do not impeach him or at least stop him, they are just as guilty of malfeasance as Obama." I told Quinn, "we have a Doomsday Machine on two legs."
