President Barack Obama says requiring people to get health insurance and fining them if they don't would not amount to a backhanded tax increase.

"I absolutely reject that notion," the president said. Blanketing most of the Sunday TV news shows, Obama defended his proposed health care overhaul, including a key point of the various health care bills on Capitol Hill: mandating that people get health insurance to share the cost burden fairly among all. Those who failed to get coverage would face financial penalties.

Obama said other elements of the plan would make insurance affordable for people, from a new comparison-shopping "exchange" to tax credits.

Telling people to get health insurance is absolutely not a tax increase, Obama told ABC's "This Week."

He grills Obama on raising taxes. Obama wants to call individual mandate fines "non-taxes." Because they're just fines. Fines which are paid to the government as part of its revenue collections. That kind of fines. Obama won't stop arguing that that's not a raised tax. Just new, additional money you in the middle (or lower) class have to pay to the government, but not a tax. Because it's "fair" and "common sense." ..... hope and change......He also asks Obama multiple times if he will sign into law the coming (hopefully) ACORN defunding ban.

Obama votes present, multiple times, refusing to answer.
