Thread Name: BS: Republican response to Health Reform
Subject: RE: BS: Republican response to Health Reform
"Some of the measures will attempt to repeal parts of Obamacare. For example, the new health care law has a provision that forces companies to file a 1099 form to the I.R.S. every time they pay more than $600 a year for goods or services from any individual or corporation. If you're a freelancer and you buy a laptop from an Apple store, you have to file a 1099. If you spend more than $600 per year with FedEx, you have to file a 1099. Republicans are going to make this an early target — an example of the law's expensive interference in business life. "


This from David Brooks, NYT.

I have to say I agree with this specific target. That is a stupidly burdensome proviso.
