A Tax on Amputees

The New Hampshire Union Leader has an editorial pointing out that the Boston Marathon bombing victims who lost limbs and who will be fitted with prosthetic or artificial legs will be stuck paying the ObamaCare medical device tax. The editorial doesn't suggest it, but a fun move for the Republicans in Congress who oppose the medical device tax and the Democrats (including Al Franken and Elizabeth Warren) who also oppose the tax would be to send up a bill waiving the tax for prosthetic limbs for Boston Marathon bombing victims (or, for that matter, for American troops who lose limbs to improved explosive devices). See if President Obama vetos that one!
