ORIGINAL: MrRodgers I am still reading this shit. ANY insurance...repeat ANY insurance mandated by ANY state or the fed is a mandate to fucking buy insurance...period. If ANY of it is constitutional it is ALL constitutional. Now that I have a few extra mintues, let me dumb it down to your level. Constitution: Dear Federal Government, you have purview over and can regulate/legislate in areas A, B, C. If you step into anything that is not specifically A,B,C it is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Dear Anyone other than the Federal Government: The Feds can tell you what to do regarding A, B, C. I don't care what you do in any other area that I am silent on. So in the context of your nonsensical statement, mandatory health care insurance is NOT in the Constitution. A FEDERAL law to that effect is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Citing the Commerce Clause (which regulates INTERSTATE COMMERCE) as making mandatory health insurance part of the Constitution is particularly asinine because it is the Federal government itself that says that health insurance CANNOT be sold interstate. But STATE mandatory health insurance (or auto insurance) is NOT in the Constitution, and a State can do whatever it wants in those areas. Got it?
