Know how to fight evil (mandates)?
Simple: Tank your take-home.
Proving that there are no coincidences, PresBo's "acting" Solicitor General (aka Neal Kumar Katyal), offers words of encouragement and a surprising (if cynical) strategery for avoiding the individual mandate:
"[T]he minimum coverage provision only kicks in after people have earned a minimum amount of income ... So it’s a penalty on earning a certain amount ... someone doesn’t need to earn that much income."
To paraphrase Larry the Cable Guy, I don't care who you are, that's genius! And in this economy, it's both realistic and relatively easy.
Unfortunately, Judge Jeffrey Sutton (of the 6th Circuit), had the temerity to point out "that wasn’t in a single speech given in Congress about this...the idea that the solution if you don’t like it is make a little less money.”
Geez, Jeff, haven't you been paying attention? We had to pass the bill to see what's in it!
