April 15 is a hard day for many, as their annual federal tax bill comes due.
But it could have been worse.
According to a new report, President Obama has sought 442 tax increases
since taking office, though most have died because of congressional
opposition.
Having included 93 new taxes in his fiscal 2015 budget, the anti-tax
Americans for Tax Reform reviewed his proposals since his 2009 Inauguration
to determine just how tax-friendly the president has been. Their conclusion:
He's very friendly.
"History tells us what Obama was able to do. This list reminds us of what
Obama wanted to do," said Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax
Reform.
The group's list of 442 tax proposals notes that he did sign 20 tax
increases into Obamacare and a tobacco tax approved soon after he entered
office. For the Obamacare taxes, the net tax hike over the next decade is at
least $1 trillion, said the group.
The ATR calculation of the president’s tax proposals by year:
— 79 tax increases for Fiscal Year 2010.
— 52 tax increases for FY 2011.
— 47 tax increases for FY 2012.
— 34 tax increases for FY 2013.
— 137 tax increases for FY 2014.
— 93 tax increases for FY 2015. | m********8 发帖数: 7463 | 2 狠赞
