Where are all these taxes?

Instead of arguing the fairness of the tax code, I'd like someone among the pundits to answer the question from the OP. What new taxes have been enacted under Pres. Obama? Or more accurately, what new taxes under Obama are having such a negative affect on the economy as is being reported?

I understand businesses are preparing for the new taxes under health care legislation, but "what is to be" isn't "what is".

If Obama and his backers are claiming the benefit of these future tax increases and benefit cuts in order to justify his proposals, then they should be willing to claim the associated costs.

You can't say "the health care bill will cut the deficit!" and then pretend like you had nothing to do with the nitty gritty of how and why.
