Gun Control Resistance done right

[Singlestack]

My favorite part: "The old "New Left" slogan was "What if they had a war and nobody came?". The "New Right" slogan should be "What if they passed a law and no one complied?"

Can't wait to use that line on my knee-jerk liberal/progressive/socialist sister-in-law next time she uses one of the left's focus group tested rhetorical questions on me or my wife. My guess is she will blow her gasket since gov to her is the source of all that is good.

Meant "Gun Control" of course! "Gin Control" is what my wife practices....

Kinda' like requiring everyone to have health insurance? Let's see what happens as millions don't comply.

The penalty in 2014 is calculated one of 2 ways. You’ll pay whichever of these amounts is higher:

• 1% of your yearly household income. (Only the amount of income above the tax filing threshold, $10,150 for an individual, is used to calculate the penalty.) The maximum penalty is the national average yearly premium for a bronze plan.
  
• $95 per person for the year ($47.50 per child under 18). The maximum penalty per family using this method is $285.

The way the penalty is calculated, a single adult with household income below $19,650 would pay the $95 flat rate. A single adult with household income above $19,650 would pay an amount based on the 1 percent rate. (If income is below $10,150, no penalty is owed.)
The penalty increases every year. In 2015 it’s 2% of income or $325 per person. In 2016 and later years it’s 2.5% of income or $695 per person. After that it's adjusted for inflation.
If you’re uninsured for just part of the year, 1/12 of the yearly penalty applies to each month you’re uninsured. If you’re uninsured for less than 3 months, you don’t have to make a payment.

I'm aware of it...I just don't see this working out how they've ordained it.

It is my understanding though that the IRS has no way to enforce the theft/tax except by taking it from refunds. Therefore, set your taxes up so you dont get a refund and viola! Plus theres another exception to the rules that says something about if it creates a hardship. So if everyone checks that box, it cant be enforced.
