6.5 Million Taxpayers Paid $3 Billion In Obamacare PenaltiesMar 29, 2017
Approximately 6.5 million taxpayers paid $3 billion in Obamacare penalties for not having health insurance in 2016, according to preliminary data from the Internal Revenue Service Commissioner John Koskinen. Beginning in 2014, the Affordable Care Act’s individual mandate required that Americans purchase health care coverage or pay a penalty to the Internal Revenue Service. While the number of taxpayers paying the penalty has declined since 2014, the total amount in penalties paid to th ...

Undocumented Immigrants Paid $11.2 Billion In Taxes While GE Paid NothingJul 04, 2011
This past month, there was much outrage over the fact that General Electric, despite making $14.2 billion in profits, paid zero U.S. taxes in 2010. General Electric actually received tax credits of $3.2 billion from American taxpayers. At the same time that General Electric was not paying taxes, many undocumented immigrants, who are typically accused of taking advantage of the system while not contributing to it by many on the right, paid $11.2 billion in taxes. A new study by the I ...

State Department Leaves Contractors In Afghanistan WithoutAug 15, 2016
Surrounded by increasing violence and instability, U.S. contractors left behind in Afghanistan are raising alarm about the potential for another Benghazi tragedy, saying the State Department isn't sharing with them a plan to evacuate if insurgents launch a debilitating attack. The concerns are heightened by the fact that many of those civilians doing the security and nation-building work of the U.S. government hold sensitive security clearances, making them an attractive target for the e ...

Obamacare Meltdown Has Arrived. Tennessee Is Ground Zero For Obamacare'sOct 07, 2016
last month the state insurance commissioner, Julie Mix McPeak, approved premium increases of up to 62% in a bid to save the exchange set up under the Affordable Care Act. “I would characterize the exchange market in Tennessee as very near collapse,” she said. Then last week BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee announced it would leave three of the state’s largest exchange markets—Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville. “We have experienced losses approaching $500 million over the course of ...

Obamacare Is Failing From Behind... His Goals For ObamacareJul 20, 2016
1) Have it collapse so that single payer can be implemented amidst the ensuing chaos. 2) Have that happen on somebody else’s watch. Obamacare was designed to fail so the Democrats could “reform” it with complete government provided socialized medicine. That is the entire purpose for it. Obamacare is designed to collapse so they can backfill the vacuum with government run socialized medicine. Eventually, everyone will be on some form of Medicare. I believe that was one of Bernie’ ...

Trump-- This Says It All--I'm Not Getting PaidAug 08, 2015
He remarks on his time at the debate "I'm not getting paid for this." I wonder if he were to be awarded the PRIVILEGE of the presidency that he would consider the duties important enough to warrant his time and attention, due diligence and civility? Does the job PAY enough to warrant that for him? I mean he's "RICH" and all. His comments on Megyn Kelly's efforts are disgusting. http://www.cnn.com/2015/08/08/politics/donald-trump-cnn-megyn-kelly-comment/ ...

Medicare Improperly Paid Jan 24, 2013
"Illegal immigrants and prison inmates received more than $120 million in Medicare services from 2009-2011 despite federal law that makes them ineligible for the program, according to two new reports from the HHS inspector general. "The issue, according to the reports, is timing. When Medicare is alerted that someone is incarcerated or undocumented, its contractors help prevent payments from going out the door. But often, Medicare’s databases aren’t up to date, and improper payments go o ...

Amazon Workers Want To Be PaidOct 03, 2014
for waiting in line.   "Amazon warehouses are full of stuff people like. To cut down on theft, workers who box and ship it are required to pass through security checkpoints after their shifts, waiting in lines that can take almost 30 minutes to get through.  On Oct. 8 the Supreme Court will hear arguments about whether that time counts as work."   Gee, aren't these Amazon workers lucky that they do not work for MTSOs  who constantly run out of work and leave thei ...

As For The Paid Protestor AngleJun 22, 2015
In this case, this man left his job to pursue political organization.  If he receives money to help with his expenses, I suppose you would say he is paid.  (He has used a good part of his own money, but I am certain that is running thin.)  He is doing the work of many who are unable to participate due to their own obligations to family and some who simply could not live this way.   I, for one, appreciate the work he does, am happy to contribute and do not deny anyone o ...

At least some of the protesters who looted, rioted, burned buildings and overturned police cars in Ferguson, Missouri, last year were promised payment of up to $5,000 per month to join the protests. However, when the Missourians Organizing for Reform and Empowerment (MORE), the successor group to the now-bankrupt St. Louis branch of ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), stiffed the protesters, they launched a sit-in protest at the headquarters of MORE and created a Tw ...
