What a freakin ruse...

Imagine those who have no credit at all, illegals and such being charged more for their health insurance. LMAO

Yeah, I can see that...

Could be the other way around....those with good credit obviously have money and need to pay their "fair share".

That credit check ONLY applies to the middle class. Folks who have been living off the State's largesse for-EVER don't have to worry about credit checks ... their health care is free... Obama takes care of Democrat's most reliable voters...

In some states yes, in others, no, when it comes to health insurance.

Do you have to pay the fines if your credit is too poor to qualify for mandatory insurance?
