Health care

If you are interested in one more example showing that the elected officials who designed Obamacare did not know what they were doing, here is the latest. Officials are concerned that young healthy people are not interested in signing up for health care and this is the group whose premiums were expected to offset the cost of covering those with pre-existing conditions. If they had asked anyone who was in the business of selling health care they would have discovered that these sales people do not even waste their time on contacting young singles as they are well aware these people are not good prospects. The penalty for these young people who refuse to get health care is $100 per year and they will just pay that. The penalty does increase to $625 by 2014 but that will still not do it. When people file their federal income tax in April of 2104 there will be a question asking if the person has health care and they will be required to submit proof. If they cannot they will be charged the penalty. One more addition to our tax forms is just what we needed.
