Next year, the fines and penalties start, for people who didn't sign up for the hugely expensive Obama-approved insurance policies the Democrats forced on them by enacting the Obamacare law.
These are the fines and penalties the Democrats wrote into the bill to force people to sign up, insisting that they weren't taxes.
Yes, the ones that, as soon as the votes were counted, the same Democrats turned around and insisted to the Supreme Court that they WERE taxes, not penalties. The Democrat knew that penalizing people for NOT doing something, was unconstitutional, so they engaged in doublethink as much as possible to try to fool people. The Supreme Court agreed, declaring such penalties unconstitutional.
So the Democrats lied (again) and told the Supremes that the penalties were taxes instead.
Now they're about to kick in.
Keep in mind: If you are trying to decide between paying your doubled or tripled Obamacare premiums, and putting food on the table, the most economical course is to drop all your health care insurance and pay these penalties. Then, if you get sick or injured, sign up right away for Obamacare insurance. Under Obamacare, the insurance companies have to accept you, and pay for your treatment, even though the problem occurred before you signed up with them. Let them pay for your treatment, and when you're cured, then drop the insurance again. Until the next time you get sick, then do it all over again.
The penalties are much lower that the Obamacare premiums. And it's completely legal - you'll be obeying the Obamacare law 100%.
An extra incentive: If you reduce your income tax withholding enough that you have to send the Fed govt money on April 15, they can't charge you that Obamacare penalty. They can only take the penalty money if they owe YOU a refund on April 15. If you owe them, you're home free, and can't be charged the penalty for not signing up for Obamacare. And your paychecks will be bigger, since you reduced your payroll withholding. And this is completely legal - the Democrats deliberately wrote the law that way.
Otherwise, get ready to pay, and pay, and pay, starting next year, thanks to Obamacare.

ObamaCare fines loom for uninsured
By Elise Viebeck - 12/17/14 06:00 AM EST
People without insurance are running out of time to avoid the hefty ObamaCare penalties that the IRS will be handing down in 2016.
Consumers face a Feb. 15, 2015, deadline to buy insurance, after which those without coverage could be hit with fines of $325 per adult or 2 percent of family income, whichever is higher.
Uninsured people looking to escape the penalties are turning to the exchanges before they close, while insurance companies and tax preparers are seizing on the looming tax hit as a business opportunity.
One recent mass mailer from CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield obtained by The Hill warned potential customers in the Washington, D.C., region that going without health insurance coverage would come with a steep cost.
