For those thinking the penalty would be cheaper than insurance, well when I was a healthy 38 year old male, I had a little pain in my arm one day. That little pain turned into a quadruple bypass due to genetics. By the time I was through with all the tests, the 2 trips and stays for stents, then the bypass, my bill was easily 1 million dollars. I would STILL be paying that (and would be the rest of my life) if not for insurance I had at the time. Instead of being broke, I still own my home and am able to support myself without help from welfare/etc. am still alive and have now retired.
You may think its cheaper, until you really need it. Without any warnings bad health can strike in an instant. Those who think the ACA is bad, are just clueless because it hasn't happened to them...yet.
