I perused the FedGov doc linked...what a fustercluck this is, I guarantee you all this thing is going to cause peoples heads to explode...
If anything ever called for 100% non-compliance by the America people, it is this...by my soon to be former countrymen do not have 1% of the stuff our Founders had, so kiss the Old Republic goodbye!
And Pubbies will fund this atrocity...another (one of the last perhaps) hill they won't die on...but die they will.
Yeah article doesn't even mention that those "tax credits" only help pay for ONE PERSON. Not the price of a family, which on the exchanges will be over $20,000 a year. . this will of course have the desired effect of breaking up families just so they can get Health Insurance, and lets see what else you and the Kids qualify for Mrs. Johnson! Dependence on the Fed is Key to Financial Freedom! War is Peace. I just can't wait for the first lefty to complain about it. I will jump down their throat, rip out their liver and feed it to them on a platter with a Big serving of "I told you so you arrogant narcissistic moron, but you refused to listen and called be racist, and don't even have the decency now to apologize. "
And then the $95 and 1% bs -- see it isn't much! Certainly not enough to be considered an infringement on your rights or a burden by John Roberts the traitor. "The penalty for 2014 will be the greater of $95 per adult and $47.50 per child up to a $285 family maximum or 1% of income above a specified filing threshold ($10,000 for an individual and $20,000 for a family)" Oh, so if I earn $40,000 a year the penalty is $2000 (I think its 1% over the exemption amount) , or $166 a month for you to exercise your conscience and not pay for abortions and contraception. But hey, you can always enter an exchange and have the
tax payer pay the bulk of your premium ( directly to the insurance company of course..) So my Hypothetical family of 4 earning $40K ( the low side of the median now in this country) would in theory pay 11,689 ( if you don't smoke..) and $17533 if you and your kids do smoke (silver plan) , and yeah I expect that MOST $40K households have adults and children who smoke. (Hows that for a "Nudge"? ) and you will get $9724 (or $810 a MONTH!) in subsidy to pay for it. So at a $40,000 level you pay $2000 in penalty or $2000 to be on the plan ( if you don't smoke) and another $2000 PER PERSON who does smoke. Of course we know the the Obamavoter will lie and NOTHING will be done to stop them, so no those premiums will not be paid, but the smokers WILL be getting health "insurance"
For a family earning OVER the Median income in Obama's economy, $50K ( which is 212% of Poverty level) you will get $8323 ($693 per month) towards your $11,689 premium and owe a $3000 penalty or pay $3365 of health insurance - and the gap widens from there. So for a large number of people it will make more sense to pay the penalty- especially those who run their own businesses - which is by design because that is how they are paying for the 1/2 of the population under the media income. When penalties rise, the exchanges will tend to look more attractive cost wise and on par for the smoker, but either way its throwing a $166 a month bill at a person trying to support a family on $40K. But what if you are an individual? Oh you get NOTHING at 40K. Just a new $3800 premium to pay (if you don't smoke - $4750 if you do) or a $2000 "tax" rising to $4500. SURPRISE! Vote for the Free Shyt Nigger Candidate! Single parent two child family on 40k? You win a new $3365 bill to pay each year after subsidy! Or a $2K one the first year and increasing to $4500 !
Pay it you fing stupid Obamabot voters. Hope and Change. Stick it to those RICH ( IF you are single and earn 40K- you are at 348% of the poverty line!)
But check this out-- according to this calculator 20% of your premium($2759) is STILL PAID FOR up to 94000. And drops to zero suddenly at $95000. Ah, I guess Obama thinks you have made enough money.
But with no enforcement mechanism, I expect mass revolts. And mostly among the 40-50K middle, and no one will be prosecuted - because its just not going to be worth going after $2000 - The average IRS agent earns 73K, and the low range is 60K. Keeping it conservative, Add 20% for Employer FICA and Health insurance costs. 2 Weeks of paid vacation, and your "cheap" agent's time costs $36 an hour. At that rate they can spend 55 hours on your case before they are losing money pursuing you. Force them to take it to court, and now they are paying Lawyers at least $100 an hour. They are a Govt Bureaucracy - so you know for every rule there are 50 exceptions and poor communication. You apply for each and every exemption - with full knowledge they will be denied. you Call the wrong number and see if you can get two agents accidentally working your case. You provided everything in writing. No emails. no electronics. The Libtards just have no clue how vulnerable they are if they are forced to play by their own rules.
Here is an interesting account of being an IRS agent I ran across How viable this is will depend very much on demographics and how many seniors they are able to deny coverage. ( I can't wait till having living grandparents is associated with having wealth)
I will most likely have insurance via my employer, but I will forget to claim it. I will string them along trying to collect as long as I legally can and then, and only then, prove I have qualifying insurance. If I loose my job and insurance? There is a good bet I will neither purchase anything on the nor pay the penalty. If I can qualify for those religious organizations I may go that route, but otherwise I will pretty much be to the Galt stage and they can try and make me obey. Hope you Obamabots think making me obey is worth blood, for that is what you will get, and my only regret is that I couldn't have taken more of the freedom hating, Fing Lefty bullies with me when I go.
