I’m fine…I have awesome benefits at work…but to possibly go to jail for not having medical insurance? That’s a bit much. I do agree about going to jail a bit much for such a thing. I like MA’s idea of having them face a small financial penalty, which I believe for them is a tax exemption that they would lose out on. But either way, every American SHOULD have health insurance. For a lot, it could mean the difference of life and death. I pay around $450/month for insurance coverage right now. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/the-health-care-plan-you-didnt-know/248192)._
