Be prepared for tax increases
2015 is the year of the tax.
As of Jan. 1, thanks to Democrats and our fearless leader we get the following:
Top Medicare tax went from 1.45 percent to 2.35 percent; Top Income tax bracket went from 35 percent to 39.6 percent;
Top income payroll tax went from 37.4 percent to 39.6 percent;
Capital Gains tax went from 15 percent to 28 percent;
Dividends tax went from 15 percent to 39.6 percent;
Estate tax went from 0 percent to 55 percent.
In case you forgot, these all passed under the Un-Affordable Care Act, which had zero Republican votes.
Still like our leader and his crew?
