We should come up with a new name for that game. Commie crap shoot? While<br>
we are at it, we need a name for the practice of opting out of health<br>
insurance, paying the tax penalty and hoping for the best, which still<br>
externalizes risk onto the other tax payers. Suggestions welcome, extra<br>
credit for alliteration, such as Capitalist Coinflip or American Insecurity.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Millennial Maximizers?</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
Oh now that's just cold. Adrian is a young healthy guy, a perfect example<br>
of the kind of person who will weigh the cost of health insurance vs the<br>
price of the tax penalty for not having it, then opt out.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I haven't decided whether to opt out and pay the penalty yet, and I'm 49.</div><div><br></div><div>-Kelly</div><div><br>
