Obamatax on pacemakers dying?

[HenryBHough]

America's Kenyan Emperor is losing fast in his battle against the sick and the elderly!

The House of Representatives has voted to end His Royal Tax on medical devices!

“'The medical device tax is yet another failed policy of Obamacare that not only stifles innovation and costs good-paying jobs, but also threatens access to life-saving and life-improving devices, on which many Americans depend,' said Rep. French Hill, R-Ark."

Of course His Royal Highness will try to veto the bill but it seems even Democrats know they, too, get old and will need things like pacemakers and wheelchairs. Not to mention the thousands of veterans in need of the artificial limbs Obama so merrily taxed!

"The White House has threatened a veto saying it would provide a tax break to profitable corporations at the expense of families needed help to pay for medical coverage.The bill was approved, 280-140, with 46 Democrats in support mostly from states where medical devices are manufactured."

Litmus test for 2016 presidential wannabes of all parties: "Do you support The Obamatax on grannie's pacemakler?"

Boosting the costs of medical devices has never made any sense, since the feds buy the vast majority of them through medicare, medicade and VA.

It does if your goal is to redistribute money to welfare moochers which is EXACTLY what this tax is. They are using the revenue from the tax to fund freebies for the freeloaders to buy their votes.
