For the record, I am not a fan of either being mandated, It's just something that never made sense to me, and no one seems to be able to give me a good answer on this. When Obama rolled out Romney-care nationwide, you were mandated to have health insurance, and people understandably got upset. But when I would point out that car insurance is also mandatory, people on both sides of the aisle just shrug like it's no big thing.
I know this is a bit off topic, but for all my petty gripes about this place, GA.WIN is the last political place on the internet I can ask a question and get an answer from an actual human being.
Hmm, well when you drive a vehicle and injure another persons vehicle, health, or property, mandated car insurance makes you are responsible for the damages you caused to the other persons vehicle, health, or property. A persons health does not affect another persons vehicle, health or property, It is a personal decision to live healthy and insure against health costs that you cannot afford.
