Making people and ideas findable

The healthcare bill(s) are becoming absurd. Now the recent news is you could face up to 1 year in jail or a $25,000 fine if you do not comply for failing to pay the up to $1,900 fee for not buying health insurance. You can go to the Politico to confirm this so there isn't "conspiracy" charges leveled against me:

Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) received a handwritten note Thursday from Joint Committee on Taxation Chief of Staff Tom Barthold confirming the penalty for failing to pay the up to $1,900 fee for not buying health insurance.

Violators could be charged with a misdemeanor and could face up to a year in jail or a $25,000 penalty, Barthold wrote on JCT letterhead. He signed it "Sincerely, Thomas A. Barthold."


When are people going to start wake up and facing the reality that our government is inept and out of control. Putting Americans in jail or a possible fine for not wanting to purchase into a government created healthcare program. How in the world does this even make sense.

This process has been very slow in taking away Americans freedoms and we are reaching a point to where things could get very out of control real quick. I could type for hours, but need I say more with this most recent proposal.

Enjoy what you got now............
