But aren't laws sometimes overturned due to suits brought? I agree that for now it is a done deal, lol, and when it is the government in view, we're pretty much paddling upstream without a paddle, but, the question could be changed to...isn't this over-reaching what our government should be able to make law?

What's next? They will tell me where I am to buy my groceries?
there were several suits with one reaching the Supreme Court of the US. It has been litigated and the ruling is final. Unless somebody comes up with a different cause of action and initiates a (very expensive) suit, we have the healthcare act as it is in its present form.

I have not checked the accuracy of the statement





*The [penalty]fee in 2014 is 1% of your yearly income [sic]of $95 per person for the year, whichever is higher. the fee increases every year. In 2016 it is 2.5% of income [sic]of $695 per person, whichever is higher.
In 2014 the payment for uninsured children is$47.50 per child. The most a family would have to pay in 2014 is $285. You make the payment when you file your 2014 taxes, which are due in April 2015.
