On April 1st the LARGEST federal tobacco increase in HISTORY took effect. The tax collects $32.3 billion in new tax revenue over the next 4.5 years and it’s Obama’s first step in socializing our healthcare system.

The tax was included in the bill tp expand State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). The new tax provides healthcare to children of families who are (wait for it) too well-off to qualify for Medicaid.

Obama said; 95% of the population would not see tax increases under his administration, however as with many of his campaign PROMISE’S “Change Has Come” in the form of taxation.

This tobacco tax falls squarely on the 95% who were to be sheltered from his “No Tax Increases”. Voters must know they will be paying for ALL of Obama’s socialist programs for the (hopefully ONLY) 4 years!
