A Few Facts

As a brief reminder for those who forgot or that didn't know. 

Here is what happened, quietly, on Jan.1, 2016
 

Medicare tax went from 1.45% to  2.35% 
 
> Top  
Income tax bracket went from 35% to 39.6% 

> Top  
Income payroll tax went from 37.4% to 52.2% 
 
Capital Gains tax went from 15% to 28% 

Dividend tax went from 15% to 39.6% 
 
Estate tax went from 0% to 55% 

> A 
3.5% Real Estate transaction tax was added. 

> Remember these facts:

These taxes were all passed solely with Democrat votes.

Not a single Republican voted for these new taxes.
 
> These taxes were
 all passed in the Affordable Care Act, (aka Obamacare) - by line items.

If you think that it is important that everyone in the U.S. should know this as there are many millions who don't, then pass it  on.

Warmest Regards,
