The supreme court declared the mandate as a tax, and as such is codified in the IRS tax laws. I can just imagine what the fines, penalties, forfeitures of property, and prison sentences that go with crossing the IRS will be for refusing to enroll in obamacare. Believe me, it's coming.

You don't have to imagine, its in clear writing.

‘(2) SPECIAL RULES- Notwithstanding any other provision of law—
‘(A) WAIVER OF CRIMINAL PENALTIES- In the case of any failure by a taxpayer to timely pay any penalty imposed by this section, such taxpayer shall not be subject to any criminal prosecution or penalty with respect to such failure.
‘(B) LIMITATIONS ON LIENS AND LEVIES- The Secretary shall not—
‘(i) file notice of lien with respect to any property of a taxpayer by reason of any failure to pay the penalty imposed by this section, or
‘(ii) levy on any such property with respect to such failure.’.
What the Obama-care law text REALLY says on IRS enforcement of the personal Mandate fine/tax (GPO via govtrack.,us congress bills site ^ | 10/16/2013 |)
