Will this proposed health bill compromise American families, and give the IRS even more power than it has today?

Subcommittee on Oversight ranking member Charles Boustany (R-La.) said, “The IRS provision in the bill “dangerously expands, in an ominous way the tentacles of the IRS and it’s reach into every American family,” he said today during a press conference.”

Boustany further claims that the bill would allow the IRS to confiscate refunds if there are penalties for not buying health care.

In addition, taxpayers could be required to buy insurance under President Barack Obama’s reform proposal by 2014 or face penalties of roughly $325 per individual that the IRS would collect.
