With the charge of ‘felony’, My license and my ability to practice will be taken from me. Dang, there's twelve years pissed away. Further, according to the IRS, I will go to jail. However, my length of time in prison is obscure according to the IRS.
Just so you know, what I've just said has been said for the past few years by many FR's. This info has been out there since Pelosi made here famous speech, if not before.
And she LOVES the harm it’s doing.
“In other words, people will be getting no lifetime or annual limits on their coverage, no discrimination because of a preexisting medical condition.”
Unless you weigh 5 lbs more than you should, or *gasp* smoke

You are kidding, right? Of course they can! "The IRS is the most brutal collection agency in the history of man!"
She’s had so many face lifts that she had to have a Brazilian just to avoid sporting a goatee.
Well my insurance has gone up 30% so far and I haven’t seen any added value. Hubby’s insurance is separate and has gone up too.
Says our premiums which have gone up 30% since Obamacare will go up over $2k a yr more.
Hope and change baby!
Take me to jail, I will not pay your “tax”, either..
