BUYING HEALTH INSURANCE WILL NOW BE MANDATORY

Or ELSE.

What, you thought you lived in a free country or something? Hater!

The nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation reported that the House version of the healthcare bill specifies that those who don’t buy health insurance and do not pay the fine of about 2.5 percent of their income for failing to do so can face a penalty of up to five years in prison!

The bill describes the penalties as follows: • Section 7203 — misdemeanor willful failure to pay is punishable by a fine of up to $25,000 and/or imprisonment of up to one year.

• Section 7201 — felony willful evasion is punishable by a fine of up to $250,000 and/or imprisonment of up to five years.” [page 3] (The Hill)


So what does Granny Botox have to say about this?

Stone: Do you think it’s fair to send people to jail who don’t buy health insurance?

Pelosi: … The legislation is very fair in this respect. (via Hot Air)

Hot Air:

...it reminds us that statism always comes with handcuffs, and those cuffs always get explained by either fairness or patriotism. In this case, Pelosi uses both.

Eh. Worked for Hitler, didn't it?

If you accept the fact that you are now a "citizen of the world" instead of the United Sates, you wouldn't feel that way! Do you hate the earth?! lol.
