So now that the government can prosecute you for not buying health insurace what is next?

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?

If they can fine...er...tax you for the inactivity, they can arrest you and prosecute you for not paying the fine...er...tax.

You can pick nits all day long about how you'll be prosecuted for not paying the fine...er...tax thing, but it still means you can be prosecuted for not buying health insurance.

Furthermore, now that the precedent has been set there will be plenty of laws coming down the pike that force you to do something or be fined...er...taxed.

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...

It will be treated like any other tax, brother. Not paying your taxes is a crime.

Good video. West is a smart guy.

No, it's not like any other tax. Please do some research. The worst they can ever do for not paying it is take it out of your tax refund. If you don't get a refund there is literally nothing they can do about it until you do get a refund.

i dont know why we couldnt do what the whole rest of the world does and offer free healthcare instead of this crazy shit

No, you cannot ever be arrested or prosecuted in any way, shape or form. The worst they can do is take it out of any future refunds until it's paid off. They can't even garnish wages for it.

It's amazing how little people know about something yet still feel the need to ignorantly bitch about it.

I am not happy about the law, but at least I took the time to learn about it before I passed judgement.
