$1,000 fine for not purchasing something that you do not want.

Something to think about as you celebrate Independence Day. Or maybe you are just going to watch fireworks.

      like motorists must get auto coverage now. The government would provide subsidies for the poor and many middle-class families,
      but those who still refuse to sign up would face fines of more than $1,000.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/07/03/senate-health-care-plan-impose-fines-refusing-coverage/"><P>The
      Congressional Budget Office estimated the fines would raise around $36 billion over 10 years. Senate aides said the penalties
      would be modeled on the approach taken by Massachusetts, which now imposes a fine of about $1,000 a year on individuals who
      refuse to get coverage. Under the federal legislation, families would pay higher penalties than individuals.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/794A817F-3459-4992-B0A7-ADF61CD9B110/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
