WASHINGTON – Americans who fail to sign up for a medical plan after health care overhaul takes effect could be hit with fines of up to $3,800, according to a new proposal circulated Tuesday by a senior Democrat. Meanwhile, on the eve of a major health care speech by President Barack Obama, a government health insurance option overwhelmingly favored by progressive Democrats appeared to be losing critically needed support.
The fines would be the stick to enforce a proposed requirement that all Americans get health insurance, much as auto coverage is now mandatory. The penalties would start at $750 a year for individuals, and $1,500 for families. Households making more than three times the federal poverty level — about $66,000 for a family of four — would face the maximum fines. For families, it would be $3,800, and for individuals, $950.
Well, it just keeps getting better and better doesn't it folks! The socialist agenda just keeps pushing harder and harder against the American citizens. You WILL have insurance, or WE will FINE you! Another case of forcing the issue....another argument that Hitler is sitting at the helm of the U.S.A. and along with his self appointed CZARS, or as I see them, SS recruits which are the Führer's "Praetorian Guard,".
Obama is now going to take his health care issues before Congress this week to try and persuade them to follow him in his efforts to nationalize yet one more industry, another obvious ploy to get them to bypass the will of the people. Gee, I know this excites me...what part of the people don't want this does he just not understand!
