Medicaid isn’t really changing is it? Nobody on Medicaid is going to pay any “penalties”.
A plus - they’ll get popped for felony tax evasion if they fail to pay. And they’ll need a good lawyer...
A felony conviction won’t stop those freeloaders from voting though...
Even though that is actually the law...
It’s a resume enhancer for dims.
Freeloaders always want someone else to pay for it..the same Obama voters who claim they cant afford health care are the same ones every single year waiting for hours to get into the Apple store to buy the newest iPhone..sometimes they buy more than one iPhone..yet they claim they cant afford health care..that is your typical Obama voter
Nah, they’ll just go on Medicaid and deal drugs- that’s a lot safer.
This is certainly true.
The people who have a life-long tether to EBT cards and “free” comprehensive Medicaid will NOT accept having to pay anything!
PC World says 85% of Americans have internet. That leaves 15% out there that are probably the lower income and/or lower intellect groups that don't have internet. Expecting them to sign up online is like asking average Joe to work nuclear equations.
They’ll need a navigator to help them get signed up.
Then they’ll need defense and bankruptcy attorneys when the navigator steals their ID and ruins what credit they had left.
does signing up for 0bamacare require personal information?
provable personal information?
isn’t that racist?
He dashes to the nearest phone boot and emerges as CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!!!!
Understood (althought I have no idea what a nuclear equation is) but the larger point is Obamacare is supposed to be free and provide coverage to the small percentage of people who don’t have coverage.
In point of fact, most of those people who don’t have coverage choose not to otherwise they are certainly eligible for Medicaid. These people will not pay for their health care. I understand, and agree with, your point about computers, but these same people are NOT going to shell out any money for Obamacare. Besides, money they now would have to spend on Obamacare is marginally a high percentage of their government transfer payments. They won’t do it. So, Obamacare really won’t cover any of those not already covered by the safety net.
No, they are the bottom layer. In about half the states Medicaid is expanding to accommodate something like 14 million new patients. So the poor are no better off with ObamaCare and in many areas they will be worse off because a limited number of doctors and medical services—willing to treat Medicaid clients—will be stretched even farther.
Which will mean even more paupers crowding into emergency rooms.
Maybe Holder will sue the Obama Administration for requiring people to sign up for insurance. Clearly that’s a burden that minorities would disproportionately bear - with unreasonable restrictions on access to health care. Obvious discrimination.
I agree. Most of these same people either should be on medicaid or are just outside of the criteria to qualify. And they just can’t afford the premiums.

LOL the people he is talking about don't file tax returns and if they do its only to claim the earned income tax credit.
If they have any legit income they hide it. They have nothing the IRS wants to seize. They will not buy the insurance nor will they pay the fine.
What is the government going to do arrest them?
This entire law is based on the false premise that you can force freeloaders to pay which was laughable from the start.
The only way to get these people to pay would be to deduct it from their welfare card at the bargaining of the month.
Don't worry though I am sure you and I will cover to costs just like we do now.
A Gallup poll yesterday revealed that 69% of young adults (19 to 26) don’t even know they are mandated to buy health insurance or pay a fine.
And they’re supposed to be the most informed among us because of their use of social media.
They’re on the parents insurance til 26.
That’s part of Obamacare.
They really don’t care, I’d guess....
