DIFFERENCES IN MANDATING HEALTH AND AUTO INSURANCE.

The Left is going crazy of the federal court ruling in Virginia that a federal mandate to buy health insurance is “Unconstitutional.” One of the bogus issues they are raising is that if it is ok for states to mandate the purchase of auto insurance why can’t Obama mandate the purchase of health insurance? Good question.

Next question?
