A Chevy Volt in every garage.
Solar panels from myriad bankrupt, government financed, campaign money laundering companies on every roof and in every vacant lot.
Forcing us to house the homeless under our own roofs, feed the hungry at our own tables, and clothe the naked from our own closets.
No more soda for you...or chips, dips, and candy.
How about a tax for not listening to Air Amerika talk radio? Fairness act anyone?
Its even worse than that ... they're going to make us buy GLOCKS (and in 9mm)!
What makes you say they can "prosecute" you for not buying health insurance? I know they can fine (they're saying it's a tax) each person/per year for not having a qualified insurance plan... and I guess the IRS can garnish your accounts if you don't pay your taxes, but what do you know about them "prosecuting" folks?
Well, I could use one. I have lots of 9 on hand.
Hopes it is a Glock 17!
"...but baby, I have to get it, it's the law!"
haha good video. Thanks for sharing! [ROFL2]Quote:

actually all the IRS can do about this one specific "tax" is to deduct it from any refund you would have gotten. They cannot actively go after you for it, garnish wages, etc.
If you make sure you have to write them a check each year you could get away with not paying the tax for not having insurance.
I agree with your concern, and I'm abjectly opposed to this BS health-care law... I've just not heard you can be arrested and prosecuted for that (until now). I guess if I were to think more realistically, I would realize that someone can be arrested for anything the government wants them to be arrested for, so of course they can...Quote:
