you truly do not see that this 'tax' is in actuality a penalty for non compliance? is this any different than a poll tax? if you want to vote, you're going to pay extra? Or if this were a tax increase on people who refuse a flu vaccine? it's a 'tax' that is levied on a specific class of people, those that don't buy mandatory health coverage. I can't help but think we've really lost all concept of the constitution if people can really justify this and call it constitutional.
