Some are victims and some are indeed deadbeats. I know lots of people who simply chose to not insure themselves because they think they're healthy enough, and they figure that if something major happens that someone will wind up treating them anyway.
That aspect won't change, because a $90/year fine is still going to be far more desirable to people than paying hundreds per month.
its not %$95 a year *per person*
it’s $95 *per person* OR 1% of INCOME
whichever is greater
and going to 2% of income net year
Its a TAX INCREASE
Proof this is just a Dem money laundering operation.
If they really wanted to make sure yutes bought insurance, they would have made the fine equal to what the premiums cost.
