Hey, Guess What? They Found Another Tax That's Not Just For The Rich

Are you ready for a tax on using your cell phone? The IRS has decided they want to tax personal use of work provided cell phones as a fringe benefit. They decided that unless you provide “proof” that you are using your personal phone for personal calls, you will be charged federal taxes on 25% of your work cell phone bill.

That’s just one more step down the slippery slope, people.

I was listening on the radio this morning as two local talk hosts were discussing health care, and one said that congressional democrats were discussing taxing health care benefits in order to pay for this sweeping governmental takeover (my words, not theirs). He then said this (and I am paraphrasing here) - this would make Obama break his campaign promise to not raise taxes on people who aren't rich.

I don't know where this guy has been , but evidently he is not aware that promise has been broken, smashed, grinded and pulverized already.
