That answer is bullcrap and you know it.

The fine is the “force” used to make people buy insurance. It’s like saying that no one forces you to pay taxes: you can either pay taxes or go to jail, the choice is up to you.

You are an unpersuasive shill of the administration forcing people to make choices just because you feel it is needed.

Gee, hyperbole much?

If you don’t pay your income taxes, the government will garnish your wages, take money from your savings account, whatever. But you WILL pay your income taxes. And, depending on your actions, you very well may go to prison. That is force.

Don’t buy health insurance? The government will not take your money and pay it to an insurance company and force you to have insurance. Yes, Obamacare fines you for not having insurance. But it in no way forces health insurance on you.

No where have I said that I agree with what the administration has done. No where do I say that people should be forced to buy health insurance.

Just curious - do you have health insurance? If you have children, did you have health insurance for them when they were growing up? When you (or your wife) had your children, did you pay the bills directly, for did you have health insurance to help with the cost?
