re: #278 Gus 802

I am self employed. Will I be required to purchase a health insurance plan? Due to a devastating recession I am finding it hard to make ends meet even on a month to month basis. How can I possibly afford this given that it may add an additional $400 a month burden to my budget?

What are the penalties for not purchasing health insurance on the self employed? Does this include IRS sanctions which may include regressive penalties and interest that are difficult enough to deal with in a robust economy and even worse in the present economic disaster we face today.

Gus … that is why I was asking in my previous post about jail time for exactly what you posted about .. I am not being snarky when I am asking that … what would be the penalty if you do not have money … how would they force you to pay if you do not fit into the unemployed without insurance and are somewhere else? … you know there will be people who for whatever reason will still not enroll in any healthcare plan … what are the penalties for them? …
