White House Announces It Will Probably Raise Taxes by Executive Decree

Only Congress can vote on whether or not to raise taxes. This is a clear, clear, clear, violation of the Constitution! 

He got the ball rolling with Obamacare becoming worse when they allowed him to set another precedent by decreeing amnesty. 

People... we are now officially on the slippery slope.

One nice thing about a de facto dictatorship is that it is easy to raise revenue, since you don’t have to fuss with getting tax bills through Congress. You can simply jack up taxes by executive decree. If people complain that they are already overtaxed and that the money confiscated by the government is mostly being wasted, you can smirk, “What are you going to do about it?” Watch Obama to see how it’s done:

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest confirmed Monday that President Obama is “very interested” in the idea of raising taxes through unilateral executive action.

“The president certainly has not indicated any reticence in using his executive authority to try and advance an agenda that benefits middle class Americans,” Earnest said in response to a question about Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) calling on Obama to raise more than $100 billion in taxes through IRS executive action.

Even by Josh Earnest’s standards, the lie that this would benefit the middle class is insolent in the extreme. Modern liberalism is an alliance of the liberal elite and the welfare class, who have teamed up to enslave the middle class, if not loot it out of existence.

Raising taxes will typically be spun as closing loopholes for rich corporations. But in the end corporations don’t pay any taxes. They pass on this expense to largely middle class consumers.

Adding extra salt to the wounds, here’s why the government needs even more money, despite its record revenues:

[Obama’s unilateral and unconstitutional] immigration actions, according to the Congressional Budget Office, will raise federal deficits by $8.8 billion over the next ten years.

These “immigration actions” consist of illegally importing millions from the Third World to take our jobs and displace us from our country. Obama will fund this treason by raising our taxes, in direct violation of the Constitution, which leaves this power to Congress.
