ObamaCare ... A Half Truth Is A Whole Lie

Common Sense Commentary: We need to be precise, accurate, true, honest and sincere. Anything less that the absolute truth is a lie. Deception is a lie, to mislead is a lie, duplicity is a lie, subterfuge is a lie, a ruse is a lie, a hoax is a lie, to cheat is a lie, to delude is a lie, exaggeration is a lie and even insincerity is a lie.  It is a sad state of affairs, but most of what politicians tell their constituents are half truths which are whole lie.  What our president has said about ObamaCare, also known as Affordable Insurance, is a series of lies. Here is an example of a misrepresentation which has been purposefully hidden from the American people. It is truly a lie. RB
 
 
 
Cabela's, a popular
sporting goods store with almost 50 locations throughout the US .
The 2.3% Medical Excise Tax that began on January 1st is supposed to be "hidden" from
the consumer, but it's been brought to the public's attention by hunting and fishing
store Cabela's who have refused to hide it and are showing it as a separate line item tax
on their receipts, the email states.
I did some research and found directly from the IRS's website information that PROVES
this to be true and an accurate portrayal of something hidden in Obamacare that I was
not aware of! Now being skeptical of this I went to the IRS website and found this!
Q1. What is the medical device excise tax?
A1. Section 4191 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes an excise tax on the sale of
        certain medical devices by the manufacturer or importer of the device.
 
Q2. When does the tax go into effect?
A2. The tax applies to sales of taxable medical devices after Dec. 31, 2012.
 
Q3. How much is the tax?
A3. The tax is 2.3 percent of the sale price of the taxable medical device.
 
See Chapter 5 of IRS Publication 510, Excise Taxes, and Notice 2012-77 for additional
information on the determination of sale price.

So being more curious, I clicked on "Chapter 5 of IRS Publication 510."
 
And what do I find under "MEDICAL DEVICES" under "MANUFACTURERS TAXES"?
 
The following discussion of manufacturers taxes
Applies to the tax on:
 
Sport fishing equipment;
 
Fishing rods and fishing poles;
 
Electric outboard motors;
 
Fishing tackle boxes;
 
Bows, quivers, broadheads, and points;
 
Arrow shafts;
 
Coal;
 
Taxable tires;
 
Gas guzzler automobiles; and
 
Vaccines.
 
DID YOU KNOW THAT A TIRE IS A MEDICAL DEVICE ?
You are really stupid if you believe that the Affordable Care Act is all about
health care. It truly appears to be nothing more than a bill Laden with a
whole lot of taxes that we the people have yet to be aware of.
