A centerpiece of the new health care law calls on most Americans to buy health insurance by 2014 or start paying fines collected by the Internal Revenue Service. But IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman said Monday that federal agents won't chase after people who don't pay up."These are not the kinds of things we send agents out about," he said. "These are things where you get a letter from us. Congress was very careful to make sure there was nothing too punitive in this bill." …………….
Anybody who believes that also believes in the Easter Bunny.
Sorry for the late reply here. I read somewhere that Shulman said that the IRS won’t be chasing people down, instead, they’ll just deduct it from their tax returns.
