(Bloomberg) Obamacares requirement that all Americans carry insurance or face penalties, part of the effort to gain universal coverage, may not be much of a rule at all.
The Obama administration said that millions of people may be exempt from the requirement known as the individual mandate. Homeless people or homeowners whove been foreclosed upon can apply for an exemption. So can those whose utilities have been shut off; who have suffered domestic violence; who have experienced a death in their families.
