He failed to purchase health insurance because under <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">ObamaCare<\/a> his previous insurance was cancelled and his premiums increased by over $1,000 a month, which he could not afford. I guess I am curious how the government expects people who can&#8217;t afford health insurance to pay a fine for not having it.<\/p>\n<p>Notice that the penalty for not having health insurance is called an unpaid shared responsibility <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Payment\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Payment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">payment<\/a>&#8211;not a tax. Also, think about this for a moment. If the man needs <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"First aid\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/First_aid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">medical attention<\/a>, the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Hospitals\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wikinvest.com\/industry\/Hospitals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikinvest\">hospital<\/a> is required by law to provide it. Because he has no health insurance and probably not a lot of money (because he couldn&#8217;t afford health insurance), chances are the hospital will lose money on the deal. Logically, the hospital should be the one getting the &#8216;shared responsibility payment&#8217; because they are incurring the expense. However, in the true form of government overreach, the money from the &#8216;shared responsibility payment&#8217; will go to the government to be lost in the abyss of government spending. If you ran a business that way, you would be arrested.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This was posted on Twitchy today: This is the bill that an Indiana man named Benjamin Miller received because he did not have health insurance.
