ABC: Jail Time for Those without Health Care Insurance?
During an exclusive interview with ABC News’ Jake Tapper today, President Obama said that penalties are appropriate for people who try to “free ride” the health care system but stopped short of endorsing the threat of jail time for those who refuse to pay a fine for not having insurance.
“What I think is appropriate is that in the same way that everybody has to get auto insurance and if you don’t, you’re subject to some penalty, that in this situation, if you have the ability to buy insurance, it’s affordable and you choose not to do so, forcing you and me and everybody else to subsidize you, you know, there’s a thousand dollar hidden tax that families all across America are — are burdened by because of the fact that people don’t have health insurance, you know, there’s nothing wrong with a penalty.”

What an intellectually dishonest D-Bag this PrezBo is.
Hey asshole, nobody is forced to drive a car, so your argument sucks. We can walk, ride bike, take bus. But how do I opt out of your enforced “health” care? Our only way to opt out is to kill ourselves.
Our President is a dickhead and he hates Freedom.
THIS MUSLIM SHOULD BE REMOVED NOW !!
HE IS THERE TO DESTROY THE GREAT USA!!
