If Obamacare had a daily fine of $600-$1200 for not complying you'd have a point.

You don't because people who can't afford it whether by circumstances beyond their control or directly because of their own actions will be subsidized by those completely unrelated to them or their health situation.

Should homeowners in Chicago be forced to mow the lawns of those too old, poor and in some cases too lazy or should the city fine them $1,200/day until it adds up enough to foreclose?
