My sister is in the same boat. She quit her job to help take care of our invalid mom. She gets some alimony, but the cost of Obamacare without any subsidy makes it so it’s cheaper for her to pay the IRS instead. She’s healthy enough so that the big deductibles aren’t worth it. I hope this gets put down before she’s required to buy it.
My husband lost his job 1 year ago and we had cobra for about six months at the cost of 1200.00 per month. I wish we would have not used the over 6,ooo.oo for the cobra payments because we are going to get hit with the penalty anyway.
We actually sold our home and moved from California to Texas in August hoping the job market would be better here for my husband he is still looking for a job. We just don’t have enough money for insurance.
The thing that really bugs me the most is now I feel like a scofflaw because I do not have insurance. I have always followed the law and been a good citizen but now because I can’t buy insurance I will be penalized.
I hate O I can not wait until he is gone. I altos feel the same way about Mr. Roberts what a traitor POS he turned out to be.
