I was doing some research on some of the fees required, the tax policies, etc... of the new "Affordable Care Act," and to be honest, I'm still not impressed. I think the concept of overhauling healthcare in and of itself has potential, but as it stands now, Obamacare is a hot mess. According to healthcare.gov, an uninsured individual will have to pay a $695/year fine. For those who are in the working poor who are lucky to make $15,000/year on minimum wage jobs, this isn't a small fine. Not only that, but their website remains badly messed up and is nearly impossible to use after you actually start the registration process, or at least it is right now as I'm trying to use it. When they start threatening severe fines for not getting health insurance and then make it difficult to obtain health insurance, many people end up getting screwed over by the already overly complicated system.
To be honest, I don't really consider myself a supporter at this point. What is your opinion?
