If the evil Democrats get their way it will be..

A top senator is calling for fines of up to $3,800 on families who fail to get medical insurance after a health care overhaul goes into effect.

The plan from Democratic Sen. Max Baucus of Montana would make health insurance mandatory, just like auto coverage. Those who don’t sign up would face hefty fines, starting at $750 a year for individuals and $1,500 for families. The maximum penalty on individuals would be $950.

But what if for whatever reason you just dont want health insurance, should the Govt. force you to get it?

   Sounds like more CON policy to me.

   This might be their favorite part. Anything to drum up more business for Big HMOs.

   It’s a necessity, but fining people is just plain wrong. I know of some people who can’t afford it. It’s not their fault.

   I guess it’s Baucus’ way of saying “Ok, if you don’t want Universal Health Care, we’ll make you want it.”

   Edit: I can also see this as a way of dividing Republicans and Democrats even more, as I’ve Got Mail! YAY! is demonstrating.
