The '''individual mandate''' was an effort by the [[Democratic party]] to compel compliance to [[Socialism]] via [[Obamacare]] to support a [[big government]] takeover of the [[healthcare]] system.
The '''individual mandate''' was an effort by the [[Democratic party]] to compel compliance to [[Socialism]] via [[Obamacare]] to support a [[big government]] takeover of the [[healthcare]] system.
Monthly payments for Obamacare are massive, roughly 12-15% of an individual's annual salary. If an individual fails to purchase coverage and does not meet the exceptions or the religious exemption, then a financial penalty will be assessed for non-indigent individuals. An exemption is available if more than 8% of the individual's household income would be required to pay for the cheapest available coverage.<ref>https://www.healthcare.gov/exemptions/</ref>
Fines were to be paid to the HHA of the State in which the person resides. That agency also may establish a procedure to waive the penalty if the penalty poses a hardship. Each State would determine appropriate mechanisms to enforce the requirement that individuals be enrolled.<ref>http://wyden.senate.gov/issues/Healthy%20Americans%20Act/HAA_Section_by_Section.pdf (Link doesn't work.)</ref>
The law that was enacted replaced the state-based approach with a direct penalty to be paid to the United States.
