Did You Know ?


Did you know that if you sell your house after 2012 you will pay a 3.8% sales tax on it? That's $3,800 on a $100,000 home, etc. When did this happen? It's in the health care bill, -- and it goes into effect in 2013. Why 2013? Could it be so that it doesn’t come to light until after the 2012 elections?
 
So, this is ‘ change you can believe in’? Under the new health care bill all real estate transactions will be subject to a 3.8% federal sales tax. If you sell a $400,000 home, there will be a $15,200 tax.
 
This bill is set to screw the retiring generation, -- who often downsize their homes. Does this make your November, 2012 vote more important? Oh, you weren't aware that this was in the Obama Health Care bill? Guess what; you aren't alone! There are more than a few members of Congress that weren't aware of it either. You can check this out for yourself at: http://www.gop.gov/blog/10/04/08/obamacare-flatlines-obamacare-taxes-home
 
I hope you forward this. VOTERS NEED TO KNOW.......and PLEASE VOTE!!!
