As everyone who is even remotely familiar with the DC comic universe knows, kryptonite is the one weakness of the otherwise indestructible Superman. Kryptonite is described as radioactive remains of Supermanâs home planet of Krypton and has not only detrimental effects on Superman but on other Kryptonians as well. As the Superman mythos developed, kryptonite was discovered to come in many different forms, each having their own unique effect on Superman.
Preliminary figures from the IRS show that about 7.5 million people paid up to $1.5 billion and another 12 million received a low-income exemption to Obamacare's individual mandate penalty. The law requires a taxpayer to pay a penalty of $95 or 1 percent of yearly income, whatever is higher, if he doesn't have insurance.
According to the White House, all Americans must be signed up for health insurance by March 31, 2014 in order to avoid the Affordable Care Act penalty. The original Obamacare penalty maxes out at $285, or one percent of the income, for a family of four. In 2016, the Obamacare penalty maxes at $695 per person, $2,085 for the family, or 2.5 percent of taxable income, which amounts to $173.75 per month.
