Where is the obligatory reference to MOLLER that usually accompanies this type of story? LOL

Stopping master card for 2 hours, 200 million dollars
Stopping a throwback from the 14th century from getting nuclear weapons...
PRICELESS

To whoever did this, My hat is off to you. Nicely done. The world owes you a great debt.

This is incredible. Now they don't even need to buy matches. Just a few keystrokes, and it is like the book never existed. Doesn't even leave ashes...

Quite sad.

They should legalize the LETHAL RESPONSE security system from ROBO COP as that would allow the city to cut back on the police services with fewer bad results...

"YOU PEOPLE"?
Hey now. Take a breath. I have insurance, and I pay PLENTY for it. I take responsibility, and I don't even need big brother government to make me. You need to take a breath, and a look in the mirror if you think you need the government to force people to make every move and decision. If that is what you need and want, I am sure that you can go to one of MANY countries that are happy to do those things for you. You have PLENTY of choices if that is what you desire. Please, feel free to explore and even exercise one of these options. As for me, I don't need a babysitter.

While the preliminary results are somewhat limited, what a facinating idea. It continues to astound me how versatile our brains really are. The original internet, capable of rerouting around problems.

I want one that makes me run faster and jump higher. Like those suits in Avatar.

What a well thought out, logical and reasonable idea. Thats why the government will never go for it. If you want those ideas to ever see the light of day you had better find a way to give renumeration to the congress people and senators who would carry it forward, as that seems to be the only way things currently get done.

This is still EXPONENTIALLY less expensive than insurance. Especially with the recent jumps in premiums (arguabley brought on by this program)

$750 seems like a bargain for many people. Fortunately I am working for an employer who has better benifits than my last, but a year ago I was out $1300 a month for health insurance. And if you are self employed, WOA NELLY!!!

Not unless you buy a car and choose to drive said vehicle on public roads. Driving is not a right, so there are some conditions put on it.
Stop driving, cancel your insurance, and see if you get a FINE. You are not forced.

This is not a TAX its a FINE.

In other countries (England springs to mind) you can inccour all court expenses, including the fees and attorney costs to the opposing party if your motion or case is determined to be frivolous and or without merrit. Would likely make one think twice about stupid lawsuits.

How can it possibly be constitutional to force someone sitting at home who has no insurance to leave that home, to forcibly purchase anything? It is like forcing a license to live.

While I think it foolish not to purchase said insurance if possible, I cannot see anyway to legally compel this action by force.

I can assure you that it will not change with this administration, or the next, or the next. FOLLOW THE MONEY. They filter MILLIONS to these politicians in order to pull the power to their side, regardless of logic, morality or law. It boils down to the golden rule, "he with the gold makes the rules" and this administration. like those before it, and those who will follow, owe too much to the ball bags who are the oppressors. The politicians have too much to lose financially to bite the proverbial hand which feeds them.

Yea, it's unusual for Hollywood to stick so close to the truth... lol
