No Health Insurance? How about Prison!

Have they lost their minds?!

OpEd by Skwerley
You mean to tell me if I dont have health insurance I will get fined and if I can't pay 'that' fine, the IRS can fine me (additional) $25,000 and can put me in FED Prison for a year?! Dont you think if I had 25K laying around to burn that I would have payed the first fine or even had my own health coverage to start with?! You already know the answer to that question. I would have to go to prison and why?
"What you in the hootch for?" one prisoner asks another.
"Forgot to sign up for Obama Care by the deadline..." the other prisoner answers.
"Me too." another prisoner concurs.
They are taking people who dont have health care coverage and threatening them with jail time if they dont do what they say. Is this what's to come from this administration? How can the progressives cosign on this? The 'bleeding heart liberals' are awol on this one just as they seem to have abandon all anti-war protests, even though the wars still rage.
