DNC Chair: Non-Compliance With Obamacare Will Not Be Tolerated
IRS “easiest enforcer” of health care law

Despite
claiming Obamacare was “not a tax,” Democratic National Committee
Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that the
Internal Revenue Service would be the “easiest enforcer” of penalties
against those who refuse to comply with the new health care law.
“The
way we usually think of taxation, Wolf, is that taxation as the IRS
administers is collected on broad swaths and large categories of
individuals,” Wasserman Schultz said. “This is a penalty that will be
assessed on the tax return if you choose to roll the dice and make us
all pay for your being irresponsible and increase all of our health care
costs.”
“We’re not going to tolerate that any more in America.
You have to be responsible and you have to pay a penalty if you choose
not to be,” she added.
Last week the Supreme Court upheld
Obamacare on the basis that it falls under Congress’ taxation power.
However, critics have argued that the health care law actually mandates
Americans to buy a service under threat of government coercion, a
violation of the commerce clause. The Supreme Court upheld this argument
but still gave the green light anyway.
Under Obamacare, the IRS will be empowered to collect a whole raft of information about taxpayers and small business owners.
“The
IRS now gets to know about a small business’s entire payroll, the level
of their insurance coverage — and it gets to know the income of not
just the primary breadwinner in your house, but your entire family’s
income, in order to assess/collect the mandated tax,” reports Fox News.
Earlier
this year, the IRS said it would need at least 4,000 new agents to
enforce the Affordable Care Act along with $300 million dollars extra in
funding to manage the infrastructure needed to compel Americans to
comply with Obamacare.
However, that could only mark the
beginning of a massive expansion of the IRS as a result of Obamacare.
Back in 2010 it was reported that as many as 16,500 extra armed IRS
agents were being hired to harass Americans into complying with the new
mandates.
Congressman Ron Paul responded by asking why so many
armed agents were required to enforce a law that the Obama
administration has promoted as beneficial to the American people.
“16,500
armed bureaucrats coming to make this program work – if it was a good
program and everybody liked it, you wouldn’t need 16,500 thugs coming
with their guns and putting you in jail if you didn’t follow all the
rules,” said Paul.
