Reader comment on: Early Thoughts on the ObamaCare Ruling

Submitted by Lyle (United States), Jun 28, 2012 13:45

The mandate is only a tax on those who don't buy health insurace to begin with, secondly there are exemptions from the mandate based on income level. If your income is such that health insurance would consume more than 8% of it no mandate, or if you don't have to file an income tax return no mandate.
