It`s not a penalty nor is it a fine it`s a TAX they are taxing people for not buying something

$975 is pretty steep for some people......I can see allot of difficulties arising from this. So what is the "penalty" if they cannot afford that tax?

c'mon, crakeur, you know this is absurd. this " the cheapest it'll cost for each family is $20,000"...you didn't get to where you are today by believing in a fantasy such as this.

Good day everyone. Well Just did my taxes and my tax person who has done our taxes for many years brought up the information they where taught via class room training about Obamacare. This thread will be short and tonight I will see I can retrieve the document she referenced me to that actually had the numerical data on it as to cost.
Per month per family $147.50 (This applied to my family with three children and a stay at home mom.)
After the first year penalty if coverage is not implemented. $975.00 and it will grow threafter.
I did some research on this and could not find correlating data. I have seen threads that have portrayed astronomical numbers so I thought this interjection would be interesting.
I asked if they would ever clarify this info and they will be happy to assist.

It costs about 50K$ a year to keep someone in prison. Which is money that will have to be paid for out of the same taxpayers that are already rebelling, and by a government that is already bankrupt. What percentage of the population can be kept in prison indefinitely before you have all inmates and no guards?
They can 'seize' your house and assets but then they'll have even more homeless people all over the place.
They can 'fine' you, but exactly how do you collect that fine, unless you help yourself to someone's (already cleaned out) bank account?
I haven't a clue how they intend to enforce these requirements, does anyone else?
