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.


i think the fine will start at 1% gross income or $95, whichever is
larger. it escalates to 4%/$500 in 2014.



All we are saying,
Is just read the Bill ...

Fines don't START until 2014 and escalate through 2016.
