| Florida Will Not Implement Obamacare |
| 2012-07-01 |
| Florida Gov. Rick Scott now says Florida will do nothing to comply with President Barack Obama's health care overhaul and will not expand its Medicaid program. The announcement is a marked changed after the governor recently said he would follow the law if it were upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court. "Florida is not going to implement Obamacare. We are not going to expand Medicaid and we're not going to implement exchanges,'' Scott's spokesman Lane Wright told The Associated Press on Saturday. Wright stressed that the governor would work to make sure the law is repealed. |

| #4 I bet the Obama Administration is working feverishly to craft a way to punish the states that do this, and at least give some excuse for violating the SCOTUS ruling. Won't have to be much of an excuse either - who's going to enforce anything against them? |

| #3 My current feeling is to agree with the WH "declaration" that it is a penalty, engage in civil disobedience by refusing to get my own insurance, pay the penalty, and get insurance when I have a catastrophic condition. Heck, I am SURE the hospitals and doctors can automate the process. My money goes to the IRS for Congress to p*$$ away instead of 0bama's buddies in the Insurance industry: they are NOT innocent victims. Time to make all corporate collaborators of 0bama PAY. |
