Another phony Right Wing E-Mail circulating in Kentucky. The E-Mail is after the fold. If you google the link in the E-Mail this is what you get every Right Wing site in the country promoting this crap. If you follow the the actual link http://www.gop.gov/blog/10/04/08/obamacare-flatlines-obamacare-taxes-home it takes you to GOP.gov.

This is what Snopes has to say.

The E-Mail

Did you know that if you sell your house after 2012 you will pay a 3.8% sales tax on it?

That's $3,800 on a $100,000 home etc. When did this happen? It's in the health care bill. Just thought you should know.

SALES TAX TO GO INTO EFFECT 2013 (Part of HC Bill) REAL ESTATE SALES TAX So, this is "change you can believe in"?

Under the new health care bill - did you know that all real estate
transactions will be subject to a 3.8% Sales Tax? The bulk of these new
taxes don't kick in until 2013 if you sell your $400,000 home, there will
be a $15,200 tax.

This bill is set to screw the retiring generation who often downsize their homes. Does this stuff make your November and 2012 vote more important?

Oh, you weren't aware this was in the ObamaCare bill? Guess what, you
aren't alone. There are more than a few members of Congress that aren't
aware of it either

Why am I sending you this? The same reason I hope you forward this to
every single person in your address book because you can make a difference.
