Yes it is extortion. But do not worry your "fines" will go to help give the needy insurance(ie line the insurance companies pockets).And yes most major insurance companies are 100% behind this plan,they stand to make truck fulls of money,while still turning down claims of actual sick people.
I know this from personal experience with my insurance company.I nearly had to sue because they denied every claim I had for 6 months.Total was roughly 20k,the reason...i missed putting my initials in the middle of my yearly update form(in a very tiny box in the margin,and no instructions said to initial there).Sad part was that every time I called I was told "You have coverage sir,if a claim was denied please resubmit it" for months.It took nearly 6 months to get to the bottom of why my claims where being denied.
