    Reduce the deficit?

    Let me hear your theory on this, it ought to be an interesting one.

    Between me, my wife and employees, I pay close to $5k a month for an HMO.
    Now that the ACA is law, my employees can afford the 1% annual penalty tax of approx. $500
    And I'm sure most small businesses like mine will do the same.

    Our insurance company was getting about $58,000 a year for seven people, with the ACA fines (taxes) the federal government gets about $3,500 a year, where's the remaining $53,000 coming from?

    The reduce the deficit is the biggest steam pile of this bill! When you throw 160billion at a 116billon problem on annual basis, who the fuck can say it reduces the deficit?

    Until 2016, people opting out of insurance will have a 1% annual penalty tax imposed on them. An employee making $50k a year will have to pay $500 in taxes for the whole year.

    The average annual cost of healthcare ins. in CA. is about $4,000, do the math dude, where's the extra money coming from?

    LMAO I don't need to read the entire health bill to figure out this little charm and what I currently pay for healthcare.

    You need to read my question, it's a reality bro!

    Reality must be something different in bro format because your question is based on a misinterpretation of the bill.

    Go ahead and set the record straight then.

    Show me how a $13,000 family healthcare plan gets paid by a $2,000 tax.

    http://articles.cnn.com/2012-06-28/p..._s=PM:POLITICS

    "Not obtaining insurance in 2014 will cost a person $95 or 1% of his or her income, whichever is higher. In 2015, it's $325, or 2% of income. For families, the penalty will be $285 per household or 1% of income, whichever is greater. By 2016, it goes up to $2,085 per family or 2.5% of income. Penalties will rise each year"

    LMAO I don't need to read the... health bill...

    • Firms employing 50 or more people but not offering health insurance will also pay a shared responsibility requirement if the government has had to subsidize an employee's health care.[36]
    • Very small businesses will be able to get subsidies if they purchase insurance through an exchange.[37]
