Why shouldn’t they choose “Gold”? It’s taxpayer funded.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Apparently Rhodium was not available.
When exactly did the Executive Branch gain authority over Congressional members and staffing rules and regulations?
received this email:
CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION.
Before you TEST DRIVE the ObamaCare website, read this post:
From Someone who actually got on the website:
This is a post from the Obamacare web page and not my actual experience:
“I actually made it through this morning at 8:00 A.M. I have a preexisting condition (Type 1 Diabetes) and my income base was 45K-55K annually I chose tier 2 “Silver Plan” and my monthly premiums came out to $597.00 with $13,988 yearly deductible!!! There is NO POSSIBLE way that I can afford this so I “opt-out” and chose to continue along with no insurance. I received an email tonight at 5:00 P.M. informing me that my fine would be $4,037 and could be attached to my yearly income tax return.
Then you make it to the “REPERCUSSIONS PORTION” for “non-payment” of yearly fine. First, your drivers license will be suspended until paid, and if you go 24 consecutive months with “Non-Payment” and you happen to be a home owner, you will have a federal tax lien placed on your home. You can agree to give your bank information so that they can easy “Automatically withdraw” your “penalties” weekly, bi-weekly or monthly! This by no means is “Free” or even “Affordable”.
Please post this to local TV outlets and other media-elites...
DONT GET ON THE GESTAPOS LIST. Hold off ‘investigating’ until you know the ramifications which can haunt you the rest of your life.
So let me understand, congresscritters will get to buy a gold level plan (not subsidized for anyone else) and will receive a payment for 75% of the cost? Why wouldn’t that be counted as taxable income? it will be reported on the 2014 W-2.
I have another thought.
We the People hold the purse strings.
Congress needs to remember that.
If it is a direct reimbursement or subsidy, it should be ‘income’ and not an untaxed benefit. I want these political leeches to get screwed as badly as possible.
The fine is 1% of pay which would be $550 at the max.
Term limits are a failure. CA has had term limits since the early 90s. You’re from AZ... do you want the nation to be as “successful” as CA?
Hey, No Problemo. They’ll take the best one then vote themselves a raise in salary to cover the extra cost.

Perhaps you shouldn’t post things, the veracity of which you can not vouch. Some BS postings are made by trolls who want conservatives to pick up and make all conservatives look bad.
THAT is bogus and has been going around a few days.
I’ve been asking a lot of folks to explain why there’s no email posted, just “Will Sheehan” quoting one. Does anybody really believe this story?
thanks for the heads up
You mean Platinum since WE are picking up the tab
The IRS is going to take your drivers license away?
Obviously a scam email for suckers,
Just dont pay it. There is nothing they can do.
Smart consumers are investing in the “Lead” Plan.
You won’t find it on 404fail.com :-)
Apparently Rhodium was not available.
LOL! I guess whatever costs us the most.
