What is democratic law? I thought the laws were for ,you know...everyone.
H&R Block can get you out of the insurance penalty. I guess they're republican tax accountants.

Was that an attempt at rebuttal to my post? How does that answer the question that I asked someone else, not you? And actually I should have asked what is democrat law as that is what he said. Have a nice night.

So it looks like a Democrat law is victimizing too many Democrats?
Actually, it looks like people who didn't sign up when they had the chance is the problem... Although I'd support an extension? I can just see you go through the roof if a sign up deadline was extended. Or would YOU support an extension to the sign up deadline?

While I don't disagree, there are a lot of people out there with double digit IQ who won't realize the penalty is > $99.00 until they file their taxes. By then it is too late to sign the family up as the open enrollment has ended.

Meh, I'm fine either way. How it's looking so far, I'm going to have too little annual income to actually face any fines next year.
Even if I did, my annual return is high enough to where they'd simply end up taking the fines out of my return.... (Basically, they end up fining and paying themselves)
Those two terms are a world apart.

More likely victimizing too many seated lawmakers' futures at the polls.
If there is as much pain to be had as we're being lead to believe, then the GOP would be wise to sit very quietly and allow that pain to come to pass on America (as they actually do have the catbird seat here and cannot be blamed for any of this for a change). Then, in 2016, the GOP candidate needs to run on an absolute platform of ACA repeal alongside a unified Contingent of Congressional and Senate candidates. No more of this "I will try to fix the ACA" nonsense, it needs to be a 100% promise of "We will repeal the act and restore America's freedom of choice and power over their own finances."

And the GOP never passed it because it was a stupid idea.
See how that works?
I think everyone should have to buy new car..." Hey you know most people can't afford to do that right? ".
" oh... I guess that sounds good isn't a good idea"
It is called rational thought, the dems should try it out.
