In new, final regulations issued Wednesday, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) said that parents must pay a federal fine under Obamacare if their children or dependent spouses are uninsured for any part of the year.

The regulations clarify provisions of Obamacare that seem to say that a parent will be held liable for Obamacare’s individual mandate penalty if they don’t have insurance coverage for their children.

I don't think so but I believe they were able to finalize “Rules” and this is a new rule that was just added
or made final. This whole thing is just a mess and by the time it all shakes out my family will have no more income left.

Screw the stupid democrats, Obama and No Justice Roberts and double pox on Roberts!!!!!!

Eh, I thought it was a tax, Justice Roberts?!? They are calling this a fine. Taxes must be levied by Congress, right? Not the IRS?

Pay up suckers!! Uh, err, I mean taxpayers, um, I mean serfs. Pay up or else.

Our forefathers would have been shooting the bastards by now.

But now we have to deal with these socialists, and their free sh!t army. It’s gonna be a long, uphill battle from here.

Yes everyone has to have insurance it is mandated in
Obamacare. If you are not working I guess you would have to get a Medicaid or Medicare card so the government or the taxpayers would pay for you but you will have to have something. The government owns us all now Ugh.

You kiddies just on’t unbderstand (and neither does the author).
You have to pay the penalty for ANY one you can claim as a dependent.

Basically any relative you support for more than half of their income.

I laid it out in this thread http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2984027/posts

In a few days the media will probably get around to telling people.

I’m betting there are blanket exemptions for minorities and illegals. Different strokes for different folks, as it were.

With this fortune of extra money coming into health care you can be sure that Americans are going to get the very best of care!/ NOT!!!

The money will manage to be sucked away into who knows where and the health care system will likely be unrecognizably horrible in a short amount of time, with tons of excuses, and a constant call for more and more money.

I think it’s time for another amendment to the Constitution.

Something like the “right to healthcare freedom”.

So the uninsured will remain uninsured, but will be paying for the privilege of being uninsured?
