I’d like to see some substantiation on that.
Can you provide the subsection of the law that references this?
The only religious exemption I can find is for groups that are currently outside the Soc Sec system, which includes Amish and Mennonites.

Wonder how people will like the $10,000 deductible they will have with that cheap mandatory health insurance? Platinum: No deductible
Gold: No deductible
Silver: $2,000 Medical Deductible
Bronze: $5,000 for Medical and Drugs

Well they must mean it will be lower for the people who will get if for free like the people who get the obamaphones, They will see lower or no premiums while you and I will be paying for it and in my case I will get to pay a penalty but will have no insurance because I wont be able to afford the premiums.

Muslims aren’t exempt. He was joking or just spouting off. It has been claimed many times on FR but isn’t true.

They did a news article on a DFW local station tonight. Two health navigators were walking the street and went up and knocked on an apartment door in shady neighborhood. Fat Mexican holding a light skinned kid came to the door. The two insurance whores started telling him how he and his family was eligible for insurance. No way in hell is that guy going to pay $2 dollars fo insurance for himself and his half dozen kids and esposa.
They will just keep showing up at the emergency room and expecting free healthcare.

Ultimately, fewer choices will translate into more sick people, followed in short order with more dead people — many of whom were perfectly content with their coverage and their plan before ReBamaLosi “reformed” healthcare.

“Federal officials often say that health insurance will cost consumers less than expected...”
Guess they “expected” much higher rates. Still BS but it sounds better.

And then, when the hospital decides to close the emergency room in order to stay in business...

The hospitals do get federal funds to try and offset those unpaid ER visits — that’s one thing they’re trying to reduce but probably won’t work.

Invest in rope. I predict a lot of it is going to be needed in D.C.
