A man who attempted to sign up for Obamacare online was told that a fine of over $4,000 dollars a year for refusing to take out mandatory health insurance could be taken directly from his bank account, and that his drivers license would be suspended and a federal tax lien placed against his home, according to an entry on the HealthCare.gov Facebook page.
Will Sheehan claims that when he tried to sign up for Obamacare and then register to opt out, he received an ominous warning. Sheehan’s full Facebook post reads;If true, the implementation of Obamacare is going to be a whole lot more draconian than Americans have been led to believe.
“I actually made it through this morning at 8:00 A.M. I have a preexisting condition (Type 1 Diabetes) and my income base was 45K-55K annually I chose tier 2 “Silver Plan” and my monthly premiums came out to $597.00 with $13,988 yearly deductible!!! There is NO POSSIBLE way that I can afford this so I “opt-out” and chose to continue along with no insurance.

If it was posted on Facebook, it must be true.
not true. They cannot go after you if you don’t pay the fine.
Not only that, wait to see what happens to your homeowners and auto insurance.
Surprise!
You are dealing with the IRS on this point. Have you ever known the IRS to not go after the money?
Veterans, don’t worry, you don’t need to even go there!
VA, Affordable Care Act and You
What is the Affordable Care Act?
The Affordable Care Act, also known as the health care law, was created to expand access to coverage, control health care costs and improve health care quality and care coordination. The health care law does not change VA health benefits or Veterans’ out-of-pocket costs.
Three things you should know:
1 VA wants all Veterans to receive health care that improves their health and well-being.
2 If you are enrolled in VA health care, you don’t need to take additional steps to meet the health care law coverage standards. The health care law does not change VA health benefits or Veterans’ out-of-pocket costs.
3 If you are not enrolled in VA health care, you can apply at any time.

Some debunk this saying there is no such thing as a 13k deductible. Is this one real or BS? It seems to be causing massive increases, but I heard 5k was the largest deductible.
Anyone here know what is up or down on this matter yet?

Quit posting this false crap.
But then go and find a hospital or doctor near you that will accept ObamaCare. What good is having insurance if no one will accept it?
Apparently the defining action of being an “idiot” for some time into the future will be “Puts lots of personal information into giant government website voluntarily”...
I’ve read a $6,500 deductible. Per year.

I went to a parallel site where you did not actually have to sign up or create an account. After taking my details such as income, dependents, etc, my deductible was just over $12K with bi-weekly premiums of over $400 for the silver plan.
My husband and I will be stuck with a $10,000 delectable, increase in premiums from $538 to $1,289.
Youngest daughter/sonIL and kids, will have premiums and out of pockets expenses with be $25,000 1/2 their take home pay
So yes, its true
And where does this money and the new 4% real estate buy/sell tax go? I also bet they increase the death tax with that new Obamacare RE tax of 4%.
I’m going to say this the the 25th or 30th time this crap has been posted — and pulled many of those times.
that is why many will separate or diverse IMO for lower healthcare costs under Obamacare just like it works under welfare.
They can’t get what’s not in there.
