I have heard tell of this beast "on topic" but can not say I have seen it... :D

I hope he isn't in there for good as I was really looking forward to his TMO-RSRD mod/update.

The brig is only temporary punishment.

A keelhauling, however...

Always sad to see something related to Silent Hunter be effected by something
that happened "elsewhere"(i.e. GT), but that's how it goes. Bubblehead, as I hear, had
been given plenty of warnings, he ignored them and so he was thrown to the brig.

One of the most frightening lies being told is that if people sign up for the health exchanges and buy insurance through them, the government will be given free access to a person’s financial information and bank account. Some politicians and Tea Party members even suggest that the IRS will be policing every American’s financial data. Privacy laws will be ignored. The government will be able to remove money from anyone’s bank account according to these fear mongers Guess what? It isn’t true. The government will not have access to your bank account. The IRS will not be able to go into your bank account and take your money without permission.

Yes, they will just have a court order to garnish your wages for the healthcare. :salute:

As sources go, I would put as much stock in the credibility of a blog that starts with "progressive and proud" as i would Alex Jones.

My understanding is a bank account is needed for direct withdrawal. The government probably does not want to spend billions tracking down delinquent account holders. The IRS has no issues garnishing wages for past due taxes. They will have no reservation holding any tax returns for delinquent healthcare accounts or any fines for those that do not produce proof of insurance. If anyone thinks that all will gladly pay each month on time for healthcare then I would suspect these same folks would purchase that bridge in NY.

While it is true, there is no real enforcement apparatus for the mandate(far as I can tell) currently beyond recouping the fines from your tax return if you get one it would be no trouble for them to get a court order I am sure.Never underestimate the government.They most likely left it out to avoid the potential outcry but could see them taking people to court etc to recoup the fines.

How can such a simple idea be screwed up so badly? :hmmm:
