According to the individual mandate in the health care reform law, every American will have to have health insurance unless they are exempt from doing so. Such exemptions are "qualifying religious exemptions, those in a health care sharing ministry, individuals not lawfully present in the United States, and incarcerated individuals." In addition, "[n]o penalty will be imposed on those without coverage for less than 90 days (with only one period of 90 days allowed in a year), members of Indian tribes[,] individuals whose household income is less than the personal exemption amount for the applicable tax year, or any individual who the Secretary of [Health and Human Services] determines to have suffered a hardship with respect to the capability to obtain coverage under a [qualified health plan]. Additionally, individuals whose required contribution for a calendar year exceeds 8% of household income will be exempt from the penalty."

The "[a]nyone" in your comment above is pretty broad, EagleSmack. Everybody, absolutely everybody, will be forced to buy a plan under "Obamacare". The truth: except for all those people who are exempt.
Objective judgment of your statement in light of facts: false.
Just one claim you have made without backing up that can be easily refuted. Sort of like how 50 million uninsured are actually in some (metaphysical?) way insured IN FULL.
Yeah right.
So you failed in the argument so you are moving goal posts by bringing in exemptions? Congress is exempt as well as they make themselves exempt from every lousy law the pass on the common man. There are always exemptions for any law.
FACT- The Poor are covered 100% and have always been. They pay nothing just like before.
FACT-Those that can afford to buy insurance and have not will be MANDATED to BUY insurance.
YOU LOSE
The war has started. I was also wondering why it took so long too.
