If you can work for a small business, does the small business get a subsidy for your insurance? If they don't pay for your insurance, do you get a rebate?

How exactly does the ACA work as far as taxes are concerned for illegal residents under the state of grace offered? And will it be found Constitutional to charge them FICA and Medicare payroll taxes without the implicit contract that the "insurance" programs offer?

Consider U Calif schools. If you're a student and get grants, your health care insurance is covered by grants. If you're a grad student and are a TA or RA, your insurance is part of your mandatory fees and covered by the fee waiver you get. Often those are funded by outside grants, the outside grants are very often federal. That means that your health care is paid for by NIH funds, for example.
