U.S. health care by the numbers

I understand that you can pay the IRS a fine instead of buying
insurance. The bill requires additional IRS operations to check if
all is covered and that all people are controlled on a monthly basis.
Look on the bright side: The bonus is the it doubles as a simulus bill
too, more IRS agent jobs are created.
In Massachusetts you have to pay a fine. Insurance for a young healthy
single person that would rather go without is about $5000 a year and the
fine is something like a few hundred bucks. Tough choice.
