Bill to Make the Fine $0 for Violating the Individual Mandate Passes by 90 Votes


posted on Mar, 6 2014 @ 12:32 PM


William Shakespeare said – a rose by any other name will still smell as sweet. This is a very simple, yet profound statement. The fine for not paying the individual mandate is not a fine at all, but a tax. You can call it what you want, but a rose is a rose, and a tax is a tax – even if they attempt to call it a “fine”.

The AHC bill was a unlawful bill, as it was proposed in a section of the government that is not responsible for creating a tax. The supreme court upheld the notion that it was a “fine” and not a “tax” because they are all puppets of the governing administration. This is simple politics at play, and it is nothing new.


There is nothing new under the sun, and this song and dance will continue until the end of time – so long as there is politics.


As citizens of the United States, we must make an effort to vote and educate people to the rule of law – and educate them primarily on what they can do to make the world a better place. Right now we have people doing what they want to do, simply because the majority are too ignorant to know what our ruler’s limits are. If the people truly knew what was constitutional and what was not they would not have the same passé attitude they have right now about the directions we are headed down.


But people are willfully ignorant – and they remain that way until something seriously hampers their daily lives. And by that time it is usually too late to do anything.

Howard Dean: Individual Mandate Not Necessary, Will Hurt Democrats





JOE KERNEN: Howard, you’re also expressing concern about — I guess we know that young people, young healthy people, you’re probably not getting enough of them at this point, right?


HOWARD DEAN: It doesn’t really matter that much. Honestly, the actuarial data — this is about the individual mandate. I happen to agree with Joe, the individual mandate was not necessary and it’s probably a big political thing. And that is going to hurt the Democrats because people don’t like to be told what to do by the government no matter what party they’re in. But the truth is, that wasn’t necessary, and the insurance companies like it because it does bring young, healthy people who aren’t likely to get sick into the system. But in our experience, here, although it’s with young people under 18, not with everybody is that the individual mandate is really not that necessary. And the actual data is — does not lead to the conclusion that you’re going to have huge cost overruns for the insurance companies.
