- So a "freeloader" is someone who can afford the insurance but would rather pay the "penalty or tax" which is cheaper. Hmmm, lets see, $12,000 for a yearly private health insurance plan vs just for the fun of it say a $1200 a year penalty/tax. Wonder how long before everyone becomes a "freeloader". Big government doesn't work!!!

- "..he saw that the free market solution wasn't working,"
The host of CNN GPS today said that they did a world survey on health care, Taiwan told them the U.S. is how you do NOT want to do health care. That is what they learned after looking at other countries. - Reply to this comment
- Well put, governor. It is ironic that the GOP is more concerned with supposed government requirements than person responsibility when it comes to personal health insurance.

- Is it a tax or a penalty? I have self employment income so I have to pay estimated taxes. If I fail I pay a penalty. This penalty is legal under the tax law but it is a penalty not a tax. If I choose to make my payments I don't pay the penalty. If eligible people who can afford insurance choose to buy it they don't pay the penalty. It is only freeloaders who can afford insurance but don't buy insurance but will still be treated if they get sick or injured that have to pay the penality. Thus one can legitimately argue that it is legal under the tax code but it is a penalty and not a tax.
Now did Mitt call it a penalty or a tax when he implemented it? - Reply to this comment

- massive tax increase?
what a crock
I already cant afford health insurance so it 'no skin of my rear.
I watched Boner tell everyone how the republicans would cure the health care problem "step by step." That means you might get lucky if you live another 50 years. What a bunch of worms. - Reply to this comment
