” But if you dont buy health insurance and you still dont pay the ‘fine’ they dont do anything to you, nothing, and you can still get insurance later after you get sick.”
Man, the 25 million illegals are gonna love this.
Correct.
I think Republicans got off on the mandate because it is so unpopular (as are taxes) and they thought it had the best shot at being overturned, so today court said they cant force you to do something but they can tax you for not doing it.
Given the focus of the mandate as the boogyman Republicans lost sight of the fact that it's the popular handout mandates that kill off the private insurance industry
, and the personal mandate is so weak it doesn't stop it.
