DUMBEST OBAMACARE LIE OF THE WEEK

In this video (via CNSNews) Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D.-Fla.) tells a group of her constituents that Obamacare contains no mandate requiring individuals to buy insurance:

We actually have not required in this law that you carry health insurance … What we’re doing is that you will be in a different tax status if you carry insurance versus not carrying health insurance …

This is pure BS. Obamacare requires you to certify on your tax return that you have a government-approved health insurance policy. If you don’t have one, you will be subject to a fine and the IRS will be authorized to  confiscate your tax refund.
