I met a man(25-30?) who has no job. Out of work about 2 years.
He had insurance till a year ago. He did not file taxes since 2014.
The government says they fine people who don’t buy insurance.
How do they fine/touch this guy?
He seems not to give a $—t!
If you don't earn enough to file, you don't have to pay the penalty. If he lives in an expanded medicaid state, he would be eligible for medicaid. There are also a dozen or so more hardship waivers available.
