What is this? Dickensian England?

Nice to see that Madame Speaker thinks that we should reinstate debtor's prison.

Oh this will be spun as anything but that however that's the implication.  Can't afford to buy the $15,000 government mandated insurance?  Go to jail.  Actually, more chilling is the bit about if it's determined that the refusal to buy is "willful evasion".  Who decides what's willful?  What's the standard?  Yeah, that's not open for abuse.

DIAF, Madame Speaker, DIAF.
