So are you guys against the fact that it’s Federally mandated or against the policy itself?

As far as the Federal mandate, even I’ll agree that’s a bit far and there is no precedent, even though the supreme court seems to be OK with it.

However as far as policy, it’s nothing revolutionary or new, like I said it’s no different than car insurance.

Oh I see, so **me _having_ to pay a mandated tax** or be charged with a felony in order to insure the **safety and provide for the care of others** is OK.

But same thing towards myself, is taboo?

Ok. Gotcha. Glad we sorted that out.

You guys are nuts. I’d rather be forced to spend money on my own health care than be forced to spend money to make sure others are safe :banghead
