Exactly. What part of my statement "above" poverty level to four time poverty level confused you when they said 100% of poverty to 400%? I mean it's funny and all as we always believed that libs did not understand percentages but gez whiz?No reason to lie about it. You are not required. It's not a law that you have to do it. Nor is it a penalty. It's a tax, see SCOTUS decision. There is no recorded criminal record for not having health insurance.
Further, ACA subsidies are for people who are not qualified for Medicaid, thus this is not the same as before. These subsidies have nothing to do with "living wage" the subsidies cover everyone making OVER living wage up to FOUR TIMES POVERTY. That is not living wage that is upper middle class.
So to both your points, FAIL and FAIL.
From
Income -- Not Assets -- Will Determine Subsidies In Online Insurance Marketplaces - Kaiser Health News
" To be eligible for subsidized coverage, your income would have to be between 100 and 400 percent of the federal poverty level ($11,490 to $45,960 for a single person in 2013)."
Also if you have a family of four, it's 90k, thus my statement upper middle. Not high upper middle, but upper middle nonetheless.
What would be the subsidy for a family of 4 with an income of $90K?
Here's a tool for you.
