interesting replacement to the mandate.. punishes you for not having insurance, but not with a fine.

No fine, but a 6-mo. period of playing roulette when you drive a car, cross a street, or anything else that might injure you...
-
Right, they essentially replaced a monetary punishment with a risk-based one. They should add an exemption for those who lose their job
-
That way you encourage people not to go without insurance -- but don't punish someone down on their luck.

This is not something an elected official adds to a bill if they're truly working on behalf of the people they've been elected to serve.
-
The purpose of it though is to encourage people to keep their health insurance. Whether it does more harm than good, we will probably see.
-
What happens when you get laid off or are a seasonal construction worker. Terrible for them.
-
Same as before, only a wait to purchase again but no fine. They should add an exemption to those who lose their jobs though I think.

Oh great - lost your job, couldn't get health insurance for a few weeks because no cobra? Here, lets make it EVEN WORSE. This is atrocious

Talking about letting it LAPSE! Not terminated by employment or companies!
-
Lapses can mean any number of things in the insurance world. As a licensed insurance agent, nuance is a huge deal. This is a bad deal.

Republican Party has no empathy with the poor and throwing 26 million Americans off health care is its idea of sound political conduct. Wow!
