NY Times: Many See I.R.S. Fines as More Affordable Than Insurance
   
 http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/04/us/many-see-irs-fines-as-more-affordable-than-insurance.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=first-column-region&_r=0

WASHINGTON — Clint Murphy let the deadline for getting health insurance by the new year pass without a second thought.

Mr. Murphy, an engineer in Sulphur Springs, Tex., estimates that under the Affordable Care Act, he will face a fine of $1,800 for going uninsured in 2016. But in his view, paying that penalty is worth it if he can avoid buying an insurance policy that costs $2,900 or more. All he has to do is stay healthy.

“I don’t see the logic behind that, and I’m just not going to do it,” said Mr. Murphy, 45, who became uninsured in April after leaving a job with health benefits to pursue contract work. “The fine is still going to be cheaper.”

Really, who can be surprised with this clusterf**k when it was the brainchild of conservative Republicans.

They're still peddling the myth this was a Heritage Foundation plan, which isn't true.

Still they fought for its passage...even lying that black members of Congress were spit upon.

And they cheered every time the SCOTUS upheld its provisions.

We warned 'em that people would not buy insurance especially since ObamaCoup explicitly states insurance companies cannot refuse coverage for pre-existing conditions.

1. The fines are easy to get out of

Dont pay your water bill for 3 months.

They send you a shutoff notice, which can be used to avoud the fine.

Less than 10 dollars in late fees to avoid an 1800 fine

Which is also why water service was cut-off in Detroit.

2. And when the selfish ****stain DOES get sick or hurt?

Who pays? The people who did the right thing. <== The sum of ALL liberal policy

That's why I'm fine with no relief lifetime bankruptcy and garnishment for people who VOLUNTARILY* go without insurance.



*did you read and understand the word in majuscules before getting poutraged?

Lifetime bankruptcy and garnishment is what happens when you do get an ObamaCoup policy.

5. He doesn't need to stay healthy

Since there are no preconditions, he can sign up for insurance as soon as he finds out he needs it.

Yeah.

We said that too but we're just evil, dumb conservatives.

7. And that's just the premium.

Now, try using that insurance.

We warned you about that too.

Hey Dipshit MoronicLiberalElite

Here's a little homework assignment for you.  Name ONE republican that voted for the ACA.

These idiots?


Once they found out the particulars and did the obvious dot connecting, the usual suspects were bound by ideology to find any way possible to link the Republicans to it.  First Romneycare, then Heritage.  All failed, of course, but these fingerpainters suck it up on command.

Funny how, even the somewhat sane ones who can tie their own shoes, never seem to remind the retards of that, glaringly, obvious point.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

This is a very obviously and  badly needed reminder to you, DUmmies:


When Jonathan Gruber said "...the stupidity of the American voter...", he didn't mean conservatives or other opponents to zerocare, he meant you.

:ownit:

Again, I hope it hurts. Stupidity is supposed to hurt. Now, if you could just keep it to yourselves, that would be great.

Look dummies.... I don't care if Moses came down from the mountain with obamacare etched on stone tablets. The reality is that only the dems voted for it. You wanted it, you supported it, we told you it was a disaster as you called us stupid, and you rejoiced when it passed.

Well guess what dummies? Seems we ain't so damned dumb after all. So sit down, STFU and eat your shit sandwich. This disaster is the entire fault of the dem party. Remember Biden saying "this is a big ****ing deal" as obumbles signed it? I remember it well. You own it.  Every damned little bit of it.
