Ok, work with me here...... if driving is a privilege which affords mandatory car insurance constitutionality then the only way mandatory health insurance could be otherwise is if it's a right otherwise it would fit the same basic principles as a "driving privilege". Just admit it, you sleep with a copy of the "Audacity of Hope" next to your bed at night. It's ok to admit it.

Notice I said health... though I should have said life... not health care.
You should have indeed. Keep this up and you'll become right wing buttcheeks.
Anyways, the other day I saw a Newsweek article "Here" and don't understand why some people expected Obama to do much of anything. Was he supposed to prop up a dictator whose country clearly hated him or meddle in the affairs of the common Egyptian protestor? He apparently seems to be doing little to nothing about this and all of a sudden he's supposed to pick sides and start fucking around instead of letting them handle their own shit? What am I missing?

Americans are never satisfied. They want all outcomes at the same time.
Let's not get crazy. I didn't type "Driveng isn't a rite... witch is why it's ok, to mandate insurence on cars, but obviously unconstitusional, to do the same on healf."
People have gotten use to the government doing everything that they don't understand when it doesn't, whether it's appropriate or not.Anyways, the other day I saw a Newsweek article "Here" and don't understand why some people expected Obama to do much of anything.

Sometimes I feel like driving should be a right. Or at least some form of transportation. It is damn near impossible for an adult to travel to work in like 95% of the US without a car.
Everything should be a right. It's not fair that I should have to work.

If I didn't have to have my car for my job then I would have been able to ride a bike or at worst walk an hour or so to every job I've ever had except one. Perhaps public transportation should be even more restrictive to help curb America's hideous urban sprawl and perhaps gas taxes could convince Americans to not live in a different area code from their job so they can afford one more half bath and an extra quarter acre for their house.
