accommodations four times the national average. ez ezra, you re taking the s.a.t. or a.c.t., what did you see? basically what i saw, i was seeing a lot of my friends and classmates going in different classrooms based on what they would have gone or based on their last name. so, i looked at my school website. they had all of the room numbers listed based on alphabetical order. i saw kids were outlined by their last name. i found that number was correct. also i started talking to my friends. a lot of them are frustrated that they had kids in ap classes or accelerated classes because they were competing against some of the same high schools. and i also heard from high schools, friends or sibelings had gone to doctors and got a
let s first take a look at a piece of that. anyone who doesn t have insurance has to pay magi for short. if you go without health insurance this year, it s $800. after that it s $1,500. that s less money than health insurance will usually cost you. but you don t get anything. so people, young and healthy ones tend to buy insurance rather than paying the penalty. and so ezra, part of the point that comes through there is obviously there s a stick later, but this week and this month we re still hearing all about the carrots, right? walk us through the strategy. so this has been a tension in the administration s plan. they don t want to talk too much about the individual mandate
