If You Don’t Buy Insurance, Will You Really Pay the Tax?

Will this end up back in the courts?

I think it's fair to assume that Obamacare will be a "full employment" program for attorneys.

Nice blueprint for avoiding the fine. Send the link to this article to everyone you know.

Alinsky isn’t the only one who can collapse the system.

Oh please. If you think that the IRS is not going to come after people who don’t pay the fine then you are naive. That is just one small reason people are against this.

Read the article.

“What about alllll the people who do not file a tax return. Can they just slip through the cracks?”

Yes. Robertson said this was a type of income tax. If you don’t have to file, you don’t have to pay the fine. Period.

Very interesting article. I was not aware of the practical inability to enforce the mandate.

Thanks for posting. You done good.

“The IRS will see to it that they get the money one way or another.”

Actually they won’t. This article is accurate. The only way for the IRS to collect the penalty is to take it out of your tax refund. If you don’t have a refund coming they are SOL in the USSA.

[RKBA Democrat]

Ping-a-ling. Worth the read.

[Lazamataz]

I need to read this, bump.

Surviving Socialism PinglistStories and tips with a financial emphasis to help conservatives SURVIVE and prosper during difficult times.

To be added or taken off this list, please send a FR mail to RKBA Democrat: fair warning, I'm one of the worst pinglist administrators on FR. I ping very infrequently then ping a lot.

This is a very interesting article that you might want to review if you're going to be under the owebamacare mandate this coming year.

The time will come, and it’s not too far off, that “party members” will get the special treatment. Just like the Soviet Union.

You know full well that, with the way these fascists are utilizing the security agencies, they know what party your voter registration says.

Jobs, advancement, special treatment, medical care, Obama care subsidies and penalties, all will be subtly linked to your party affiliation.

It wasn’t designed to work. It was designed to collapse on itself. Then they can justify taking over health-care entirely, single payer system, the US government, i.e. you and me taxpayer, our income tax will “necessarily skyrocket”.

Do I have to threaten to report you to the mods or sacrifice goats or anything to get added to your pinglist? Some pinglist keepers are weird. ;)

Please add me to your pinglist.

When you do your taxes you will have to show proof of insurance and if you do not I am sure the form will say please remit payment for the penalty just as you would if you owe taxes when you do your return which you have to pay or they will come after you and I suppose they could garnish your wages. I am sure they have it well thought out.

Illegal aliens, Native Americans, prisoners, those who are without insurance for less than 3 months, those who do not have to file an income tax return, anyone who faces a hardship or cannot find affordable coverage, and others are all exempt.

Sounds like I need to figure out which category will fit best ;-)

[RKBA Democrat]

Naaah. I gave up the sacrifice requirement when it came to my attention that there was a shortage of livestock in NYC. These days you just have to tolerate my extremely poor pinglist administration.

I just added you. Hope you find it useful. Search the keyword “survivingsocialism” for previous pings/articles.

[Mad Dawgg]

Its the IRS. One way or another, you will pay.

[JRandomFreeper]

Thanks. I'm fresh outta goats. Muslim neighbors keep marrying them.

I read the article. In it sez people who do not check the box would not be charged the tax.

As far as the IRS goes not paying taxes is one thing. Lying on your tax return to avoid taxes takes you into a whole new ballgame.

[JRandomFreeper]

You would be surpised at how many don't pay. Many even working for the Feds.

I read the article. IF this is true then everyone can just ignore Obamacare and go on with their lives. I don’t believe the article. I think it an author who is wishful that this will happen. The way the article sounds takes the evil out of Obamacare. I think these articles will come out to make us feel good about Obamacare.
