In addition, if you don't want insurance and don't want to pay the penalty, adjust your W4 at work to where you get no tax refund at year end. The IRS can only get the penalty from your refund if you do not voluntarily pay it. That's the way the law is written. With all the arguments between dems and repubs I don't think Obama will be able to get the law changed to give the IRS broader powers to collect it.
