Who knows when they will really need it??? Do you do that with car insurance or home owners insurance? Here's the law:

"Individuals
? Individuals who can afford to purchase health insurance coverage and do not do so will face a penalty of the greater of $95 or one percent of income in 2014, $325 or two percent of income in 2015 and $695 or 2.5 percent of income in 2016, up to a cap of the national average bronze plan premium. Families will pay half the amount for children up to a cap of $2,250 for the entire family. After 2016, dollar amounts will increase by the annual cost of living adjustment.
? This requirement is essential to keep the cost of health insurance premiums affordable. Without a coverage requirement, the market reforms that insurance companies will implement such as eliminating pre-existing condition requirements and requiring guaranteed issue would make the price of health insurance unaffordable for most Americans."
