Re: "Let's say you currently pay in $2,000 a year in healthcare premiums. Well here is what you do to get over on the system. Quit you're healthcare and pay the $750 fine per year until you need healthcare. When you need it, sign up again, and they can't turn you down because they are no longer allowed to turn down people with pre-existing conditions. Savings=$1,250 per year." Maybe not. No guarantee that you would be offered the exact SAME quality or quantity of insurance at that point-in-time. (Just because you 'can't be turned down' for the most basic of insurance plans doesn't mean that all insurance plans will cost the same, or that you will then automatically qualify for a "Cadillac plan" at some super-low price. The insurance companies will still, within limits, be able to 'price appropriately' for you. <g>)
