Indeed, there are TWO problems here.
One is that Millenials are going to ignore the law and not sign up. Which will rob the system of money with all sorts of nasty cascading consequences.
The second will be the one with greater impact: when the IRS reaches out to those Millenials for their non-participation. They’re going to learn, first hand, he ability of big government to reach out and touch them personally/individually. It’s going to be a very brutal wakeup call.
The definition of a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged.
We will see.
Can’t their parents afford to get an option package from Blue Cross Blue Shield? They are advertising that they are the alternative to Obamacare.
“...when the IRS reaches out to those Millenials for their non-participation.”
How about that? All the MSM reports make it sound like Obamacare is completely optional for the young with no consequences.
Two things I’m certain of:
1. If Obamacare isn’t repealed the IRS will make damn sure every single one of these Millenials pays their “fair share” into the system one way or the other.
2. This enforcement won’t begin until after the 2016 presidential election.
This is the crux of why it will fail... The required health insurance in Germany for example, only works because of the penalties and consequences. If you change jobs or become self employed and don’t get health insurance... once you re enroll ie if you get hired by a company... they will make you pay back the months you went without. They also don’t extend parental health insurance to young people over 18, if they are not in school or studying a trade (apprenticeship)
