>>I wouldn't know about that, it was changed beyond recognition in my absence. What I see as substantially wrong with it is the forced purchase without offering either "you can get the cheaper version from us" or a way to opt out. What latest I heard is that the IRS may be involved in enforcement, which is just the loophole to bring trouble to so many people who were so far left alone.

>How about us starting up the Church of Atheists and Agnostic believing in Freedom to Not Choose Health Insurance ?
>You could call me a part-time practicising agnostic for sure.
>And it would even be tax free - please don't wake me up!
