actually, just saying $95 is even more misleading than I originally thought!!
in 2014 & 2015, an adult who does not have health insurance will be fined $95 or 1% of their income, whichever is GREATER.
aka
only if you make $9,500 per year will you only have to pay a $95 fine.
Say you make 25k per year... thats a $250 fine for 2014 and 2015
than after 2016 and beyond (which will encompass a lot more than the two years you decided to make an uneducated comment on)
it is $695 per adult... or 2.5% of their income... whichever is GREATER
or $2085 for a family, or 2.5% of their income... whichever is GREATER
So if a family makes 50k per year combined... you will be shelling out 4% of your income to the government. that is so easy to do!
