foxnews.com ^ | 5/16/14 | ap

The Obama administration Friday spelled out civil fines of up to $250,000 for knowingly and willfully providing false information to get taxpayer-subsidized coverage under the new health care law.

New regulations say the fines also apply for lying to escape the law's requirement that most Americans carry health insurance.

Does it apply to anyone other than people who try to work for a living?

So you sign up for free shit cause you got no dough and falsify the form.
Your fine = 250000 that you will never see and never have.Makes sense to me...

Kinda like sentencing a blind man to have his eyes removed???

The Obama admin is getting nervous about the income verification process.

The backend part of the Fed website is still not in place. Thus, these ridiculous fines to scare people to not cheat.

“Did you really think we want those laws observed?” said Dr. Ferris. “We want them to be broken. You’d better get it straight that it’s not a bunch of boy scouts you’re up against... We’re after power and we mean it... There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that’s the system, Mr. Reardon, that’s the game, and once you understand it, you’ll be much easier to deal with.”

So does the ObamaCare bill spell out the $250K fines? Or is this Administration writing laws now without Congress?

$250,000 is cruel and unusual punishment for lies, especially when lying is the stock in trade of politicians and the IRS.

“I like my health insurance, so I’m going to keep my health insurance.” That’s going to cost me a quarter million bucks.

It's so much easier to get the laws you want if you pass shell laws containing nothing and then fill them up with whatever you want on the fly.

There will be more Calvinball.

Not answering at all, of course, doesn’t mean a lie. Go Galt.
