Excise Tax On Tanning Beds in Pelosi's Healthcare Bill

Excise Tax On Tanning Beds in Pelosi's Healthcare Bill
Sec. 552: Small Medical Device Companies Hit with Massive Tax

Under Speaker Pelosi’s health care bill, medical device makers would pay a 2.5% excise tax on sales of their products, roughly ninety percent of whom are small businesses. The Medical Device Manufacturers Association estimates the cost to their industry would exceed $20 billion over 10 years.

  • `(a) In General- There is hereby imposed on the first taxable sale of any medical device a tax equal to 2.5 percent of the price for which so sold.

More speculation...Click on the link,it takes you to some random questionable page...I would'nt put too much stock in anything Jim posts..he does not even own a tanning salon..its obvious he is just trying to win support for his political agenda....More stirring of the pot.

The moderators should move this mess to the say anything Forum and keep the political garbage where it belongs..in the recycle bin.

So, now you think a new excise tax on tanning equipment is just "political garbage"?

Read the bill, megaboy. I posted it for you. It's in there. Page 339. http://www.weeklystandard.com/weblog.../111_ahcaa.pdf

Is there a reason you posted it twice in two different forums?

Re: Excise Tax On Tanning Beds in Pelosi's Healthcare Bill

Tanning lamps are also Class I medical devices, so replacement lamps would get hit with the excise tax, too.

Some members that don't keep up with the Obama topic would miss the information. News impacting on tanning business specifically warrants a unique thread.

You trying to keep salon owners uninformed about this?

This would affect manufacturers and distributors, not salon owners.
