Is Your Money Really Your Money? Not if You Ask the Democrats.

Remember when the President said, even when confronted with a dictionary, that a tax wasn’t actually a tax because he decided to call it “a responsibility”. Well, call it whatever you want, but according to the Joint Committee on Taxation, if you don’t pay whatever it is, you’ll go to jail for a year or pay up to a $25,000 fine.

You’ll go to jail for…err…not fulfilling your responsibility to pay money the government says you must pay but isn’t a tax, honest and for true, because the President said it wasn’t.
