Most people must have health coverage in 2014 or pay a fee. If you don’t have coverage in 2014, you’ll have to pay a penalty of $95 per adult, $47.50 per child, or 1% of your income (whichever is higher). The fee increases every year. Some people may qualify for an exemption to this fee.
It's not a matter of a criminal offense, so a "jury" will have nothing to do with it. A criminal conviction will not be required for such a fee.
The law is what the Jury says it is. Would any Jury unanimously convict someone of this offense?

You won't get one, because it's not a legal issue, it's a tax issue.
It's not like a parking ticket.

Um... I think it's pretty clear that he was calling you stupid, not Thomas Jefferson.

The Seventh Amendment guarantees the right to a Jury Trial for civil and criminal suits, based on common law.
It does not guarantee a "trial by jury" for taxes and fees.
