You can always cancel or change your bank account or credit card. I don’t believe they can tax your paycheck yet but I’m sure that’s coming.

I didn’t put this in the post because I couldn’t find the link. As originally written the ACA penalties were to be automatically taken from any account you owned by the IRS. But that didn’t make it into the final bill. In the present version of the “settled law” they have to take the penalties from your tax refund...if any. My understanding is they have no other collection means.
They've been doing it ever since 1943. It's called "withholding."
