Dear Massachusetts Taxpayer, Beginning July 1, 2007, a new Massachusetts law says that residents age 18 and over must have health insurance. With few exceptions, adults must be able to show that they have health insurance by Dec. 31, 2007. Those who cannot will lose the tax benefit of their personal exemption on their 2007 Massachusetts income tax return, worth $219 for an individual. Penalties will increase for 2008.
yay for socialism! I got it too. Along with letter from mayor mumbles asking what my political leanings were.
Businesses also, who employ more than 10 people will be fined if they do not provide benefits. We aren’t losing enough businesses as it is, apparently. And the exodus is not extreme enough.
Tell Mumbles it is whatever he is not.
So, let me see if I get this right: We’re supposed to rally around Mitt Romney, who was governor of a state that requires it’s citizens to have health insurance and that is the only state that has legalized homosexuals becoming ‘married.’
Welcome to the Socialist Republic of Massachusetts owned and run by Ted Kennedy.
After all, the legislators who switched their votes and pulled the rug out from Mass voters yesterday by denying them a popular referendum on same sex marriage are surely expecting hefty rewards from Gov Coupe deVal.
Together we can!
not only that be presided over the sodomy fest and the socialized healthcare.
BTW....you do know that minus_273 makes you an absolute zero...(grin)
Welcome to the new Twilight Zone where everything is upside down. Meanwhile, during this insanity, our enemies are arming and waiting to get US Social Security cards and a big welcome to America thanks to Liberals, RINO’s and G. Bush.
If anyone believes that, I've got this real nice bridge in Brooklyn I know they'll be interested in....
Jeez, I guess the $700 plus I'm paying for mine is supplementing your meager $200 payment. Say "Thank You".
I've been supplementing you and how many others this way?
Not to mention supporting emergency room treatment for illegal aliens. I've got 1st person experience in this, showing up with a dislocated shoulder hanging out of the socket and waiting HOURS for some ahole to put it back in while a junkie nurse stole my meds. AND I had to take a taxi ride to the emergency room.
I've been paying like that for a decade, it's been going up over $100/mo every year.
Welcome to the Socialist Republic of Taxachusetts. Welcome to the private sector.
Oh, and Buh, Bye! I'm outta here. Suckas.
Pay your own way without me and all the other workers fleeing this state. You deserve it, you've been voting these commie, criminal, legislative sleazebags into office for generations.

“Jeez, I guess the $700 plus I’m paying for mine is supplementing your meager $200 payment. Say “Thank You”.

Perhaps you misunderstand me. I’m not paying the $219. My Liberty is not for sale at any price. They can keep their worthless tax deduction. I don’t need alms from the government. And you haven’t paid a dime for my healthcare since I pay for it myself from money I’ve earned, with no third party involved. Just as I buy a loaf of bread or anything else.
I owe you apologies, and thanks for paying your own way
So THATS how this “Free” Health Care system works! Now I get it!
Are you independently wealthy?
“what would you do in the event of a catastrophic accident or illness?”
Why is it that you can buy a 30-40k car over time but not pay a hospital bill in the same manner.
