Anyway, point being, these younger people that are now going to be depended on already had access to this insurance and didn't get it simply because they didn't want it. Totally reassuring knowing that the new system is dependent on a pension style structure. The pension structure sure has been working out great for unions! (That was sarcasm.)
what could potentially make it worse is the fact that the 1st year penalty is only $99. let's go with the official estimates that a healhty young person will pay ~$200/month for obamacare...............$99 fine or $2400 to pay for something i ain't gonna use??????????
