I did not have to pay the ACA penalty. Saved $1500. My 2018 tax bill was $2200 less than my 2017 even though I made almost exactly the same amount. Some tax forms I paid more on in 2018. But the reductions still gave me $3700 more to spend on things like a new roof.

The anti American Constitutional party (Democrat). Wants to dismantle your rights, limiting every aspect of your constitutional rights. Death by 1000 cuts is the tactic. Each cut bleeds constitutional rights to control you. Control is the goal.
