Are we going to end up as part time employees?  IRS is employing 4000 agents to collect taxes and check on penalties owed for non insured citizens.

The Government should just stay out of our lives. They DO NOT know whats best for me and my family, hell they don't know whats best for themselves. Everything the Government touches ruins. They're regulating us to death and destroying our great Country..... We the People need to wake up and push back on the Government. We do not need them in our lives. They are tricking people into believing the Government is needed and people need to rely on them. That is nonsense!!! We are losing our liberties on a daily basis......

Penalties will be phased in from 2014. By 2016, the fine will be $695 or 2.5% of household income, whichever is greater. More than a dozen states are challenging the individual mandate in federal court as unconstitutional.

The United States is the only country where insurance companies make money before you get health care. The cost of health care here in the U.S. is twice as high as the Next Highest Country! It's part of the reason the country is going bankrupt. Over 60% of personal bankruptcies now are health care related. Big Pharma is just as bad. A good friend of mine travels a lot. His wife is on medication that costs her about $100.00 a month in the U.S. The exact same medicine costs $38.00 in Canada and only $18.00 in Italy. Why do they charge so much here? Because they can. And our government allows them to do it. The World Health Organization rated the quality of health care in countries around the world. The U.S. came in 37th.
