Already answered in Post No.17. The ACA did require health insurance, but that part of the law was eliminated in 2019 by the tax cut act. Just because a law is not enforced doesn't mean it is not illegal to break it. But, to be accurate, the IRS did enforce the ACA individual mandate on tax returns prior to 2018. For example, in 2015, the IRS collected $3.1 billion in penalties from people who violated the ACA individual mandate to have health insurance.
