Is there any way I can get around this? I thought if you made under a certain amount, you wouldn't be penalized.
The IRS can't force you to pay the penalty.
Explain this in detail.
last year they just took it out of my refund so I had to pay.
You shouldn't be getting a refund if you set up your witholdings properly.
You'll still get a refund if you qualify for credits.
Those don't get withheld, so you lose them.
>government literally penalizes the money they subsidize for you
Who thought this shit was a good idea
>work part-time at a retailer
>don't make much money
>get obamacare for free because I make shit
You can file for an exemption to the penalty. I've done it the last 2 years.
"Healthcare would have created an undue burden for me" is what it's called.
seeI did the same last year.
This is actually good to know, I have a friend that had to buy it otherwise pay even more in fees.
>burgers shitposting 24/7 about the "welfare socialist european healthcare system"
>this is what they have to deal with
your a fucking moron. If you work retail youre making less than 40K a year. You will qualify for exemption.
ASK A CANADIAN ABOUT DA LINES
DA LINES
If part time < 30 h/w, you're exempt
This. I discovered this option last year.
Shouldn't you be on Medicaid ?
trumps is in offic obamacare is gone
I think ObamaCare is failing because most of us Millenials have figured out it's cheaper to pay the $600 penalty instead of $5,000 of health insurance that we can't use because of fucked up deductibles.
Most of my friends my age don't think Social Security, Medicare, or Obama Care will be there when we're old....
We're basically being forced into a Pyramid Scheme where we are paying for the old and sick... but there is nobody below us to pay for us when social services become insolvent.
Health insurance cost has been rising since decades.
The main issue is wage stagnation since the Nixon era.

Honest question.
Any of you kids out there actually EXPECTING to have medicare or Social Security when you're 65?
I don't think the mandate still exists after Trump's executive order so you won't be penalized $700 by the IRS
>on medicaid
>covers everything
>get $100k worth of infusions every year
>only make $10k a year
Your taxes are being spent on keeping worthless shitstains like me alive
Not really
