So i have to see the structure of the irs penalty worksheet.
The penalty is quite low and, as noted by SCOTUS, must be collected by the IRS without the use of any "punitive sanctions, such as criminal prosecution". As a result, it is anticipated that more than a handful of people, especially young and healthy ones, will choose not to be insured until they need insurance and then drop it when they are again healthy. Many will also thumb their nose at the IRS penalty letters since in this case the IRS is a paper tiger. This in turn will raise premiums for everybody. Truly a screwed up piece of legislation.
The link is for one of the best articles that I have seen on Obamacare's problems above and beyond the lawsuits that are now making their way to SCOTUS. Table 1 shows that the threshold for choosing the penalty route is quite low.
