SERETIS NOTES: June 2010

YOU MAY NOT KNOW THIS!

This is part of the new Health Care Bill.

Starting in 2011 (next year folks) your W 2 tax form sent by your employer will be increased to show the value of what ever health insurance you are given by the company. It does not matter if that's a private concern or Governmental body of some sort. If you're retired ? So what; your gross will go up by the amount of insurance you get. You will be required to pay taxes on a large sum of money that you have never seen.

Take your tax form you just finished and see what $15,000 or $20,000 Additional gross does to your tax debt. That's what you'll pay next year. For many it also puts you into a new higher bracket so it's even worse. This is how the government is going to buy insurance for 15 % that do not have insurance and it's only part of the tax increases.

On page 25 of 29 :

"requires employers to include in the W-2 form of each employee the aggregate cost of applicable employer sponsored group health coverage that is excludable from the employees gross income."

Why am I sending you this ? The same reason I hope you forward this to every single person in your address book. People have the right to know the truth because an election is coming in November.
