september 20th 2009, george stephanopoulos, this is a tax increase about this law president obama no. that's not true, george. for us to say you have to take responsibility to get health insurance is absolutely not a tax increase. nobody considers this a tax increase, and on and on he went and repeatedly said this was not a tax increase. when they went into court they said something very different and the supreme court accepted that legal argument. bill: and the way this tax is expected to be implemented i think it's fair to call it a tax now regardless of what the debate was three months ago. megyn: it's being taken out of your tax refund. bill: correct. that is now the government will collect it. >> it's the most bizarre tax in the history of the country. it is not related to your income, it is related to your behavior. it applies to what they commanded you to do. and that command they are not allowed to articulate under the commerce clause.
