Mom Confessions
Someone said that Obamacare is going to require you to buy insurance or pay a fine?
HUH? This has got to be a rumor?
What do you do if you can't aford to buy it? My dh only makes 38,000 a year and I am a SAHM and going to work is out of the question.
UPDATE:
First, thanks everyone for responding. THis is very educational.
2nd, I don't know if this is a rumor or not, but I heard that Denny's restaurant is going to cut hours of people because of the tax?!? Here is the link:

In the article (kinda towards the end) the Denny's guy said they would have to pay $5000 an employee per year for insurance?????????????? Surely that is NOT TRUE? $5000 a year per person for health insurance? So ifyou have 50 employees then you have to pay like $250,000 a year more for insurance? Is this true? Where is the money going to come from if this is true?

That is exactly right. You husbands employer will be required to supply you with reasonably priced insurance.

The Supreme Court stated that it was a tax and yes there will be a fine if you do not purchase insurance.

But my husband works for my dad and I know for a fact they cannot afford to pay for insurance. -

this is not particularly TRUE. If the business doesnt fit under the 50 plus workers
