Nothing will happen to you if you don’t pay the fine.

I think that millions will choose not to sign up for Obamacare.

I also don’t know, but have wondered, how will the IRS enforce Obamacare, administer the fines, etc. for the 47% of people who don’t pay federal income tax? I know that some of that 47% still file income tax returns, but suppose you don’t file tax returns at all? Would you be in the IRS database in the first place, in order for them to levy the fine? What about all these people who work under the table?

The enforcement through the IRS makes a certain amount of sense if you can assume that everyone files income tax returns, but doesn’t make sense considering that huge numbers aren’t required to file.

Does anybody know if those who don’t pay taxes are now required to file a return?

We could force huge changes in our health care system if people would just quit going to doctors and hospitals. Just refuse to participate in the health care system until the government gets out of health care. That would force the government to end Obamacare, Medicare, Medicaid and all other government programs in the industry.

The problem is that we all tend to leave it to other people to boycott the system.

What is the low income cut-off?

According to a recent survey, nearly two-thirds of uninsured Americans say they haven't decided whether or not they'll buy health insurance by the Jan. 1, 2014 deadline (even though they'll have to pay a penalty if they don't).

Another 10% say they flat out won't buy in at all.

The company my daughter works for is having some cash flow problems (as it has from time to time). It has fewer than 50 employees, so there is no penalty for not providing Obamacare insurance. Health insurance rates are expected to double or triple come January. This seems like almost a no-brainer from an accounting standpoint. Give everyone a small raise, and tell them to buy their own insurance.

Unless I'm missing something, there should be a lot more people needing to make these decisions come January than there are now.

If I didn’t have a policy already, I’d just try to find out what the names and numbers for a given policy look like and then I’d lie about it. Just like Obama, just like the FBI, just like the IRS, just like NSA, just like anybody connected with Obama.

None of it matters. This is only the beginning. If this country still has its head up its a$$ and sends the marxists back into office, they will make obamacare worse. Higher penalties.

I visited my doctor yesterday about a sore knee. First I had to fill out my life's medical history because of a requirement of ObamaCare. Thirty minutes waisted in doing something that no one will ever read, unless it is a search for a preexisting condition.

***We understand the hesitation. Change is hard enough when it’s simple to understand, let alone when it has to do with things like insurance, health care policy, and your own financial and personal well-being.***

Let me clue you in Mandi. The issue isn’t that people simply are resistant to ‘change’, it’s that people know what this change is going to mean for them personally, the healthcare system in general, and for the country.

Gee, the way they describe it, you’d think this law could be written as a 12-page document.

I don’t do anything I’m told to do at the point of a gun. 0butthole may have changed national policy but I still don’t negotiate with terrorists.

When Welfare Hoochy Momma has to pay for health insurance, a great cry will arise from the cities and trailer parks.
