There's also a built-in subsidy based on income to help those with low income pay for the mandated health insurance. I personally don't know many details about the subsidy and how well in practice it will help low-income people get health care, but it's not like they're explicitly going to tax people who are too poor to afford the mandated health coverage.
yes, but they are taxing those who might be "middle class" but have no employer-based healthcare!
