[timeforpeace]

27. It's in there all right. Whether it stays in there, after this, is another question.

[librechik]

2. ironic--once you are inside, you get single payer health free

sigh

[Ruby the Liberal]

8. LOL! That was my immediate thought when I saw the thread title.

Another step toward 'government takeover'.

:rofl:

[bluestateguy]

3. If a jury convicts you

and I suspect many jurors will refuse to do so.

4. *roffle*... politico

:rofl:

[Avalux]

5. Um.....you do realize this story came from Ensign?

It's probably not a good idea to get worked up about anything the Pukes say; they lie, a lot.

Just a bit of friendly advice.

[crazyjoe]

9. your right of course, but if there is a fine for not purchasing

health insurance, there must be some type of penalty for not paying the fine. I wonder what that is.
And since this fine is payed via your income taxes, that means the IRS is handling this, and believe me you do not want
to be on the wrong side of the IRS.

18. BWOOOOOOO!!!!!! OOHHHHH!!!!!! AAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[prolesunited]

6. Joe? Joe the Plumber?

Is that you?

Do you *really* think this would happen?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. Nobody is going to jail for not having health insurance.

Although if you did go to jail, at least you could get medical care.

[Ruby the Liberal]

10. As expected. Red headline, top of left column on Drudge. Same link.

*yawn*

11. Come on now

Watch out joe, post 66 is just a half a click away from Grizzly and the neo-nuts666

[bbinacan]

22. The OP makes a good point

in reply #9. If there is a fine and you don't pay it, what happens?

[orpupilofnature57]

14. Only registered Republicans will be jailed for not buying insurance.

The same way only Republicans will have to face death panels.

Democrats get top-secret longevity drugs that will allow them to live for over two hundred years.

Libertarians can't get the drug, but we will give them the instructions they need, to exercise the personal responsibility to build a multimillion dollar laboratory in their basements, and create the drug on their own.

[DevonRex]

16. And that's when we place the implants in their teeny little brains.

:rofl:

[stray cat]

15. I think just not treating someone and letting them die is more cost effective and fair

If you don't have car insurance and wreck your car I am not responsible for buying you a new one you are just shit out of luck if you gamble and lose.

[ohheckyeah]

17. This must be the newest rightwing

meme. Has anybody found a debunking of it yet?

[Ian David]

20. THE FINES ,would be leveed against dirt bag millionaires that don't

want to pay for healthcare ,for themselves ,their employees or their families ,poor people would have the " fine " adjusted severely ,or Fairly.
