One of the most controversial provisions of the Obama health care reform legislation is the individual health care mandate.

I’ll find a way to avoid the penalty, lie, cheat, whatever. If they catch me, they can lock me up as a political prisoner of conscience.

If this can't be repealed by the "stupid party" by 2012, this will be the beginning of the end.

Literally 100's of thousands of people will be in effect IRS criminals who cannot afford to pay this "tax"

Obama stays in the WH at least until January 20, 2013. He would veto any attempt at repeal.
