if so then isn't the government making a restaurant owner serve people they dislike, like the disabled, tyranny too? is it your opinion that makes it tyranny ...because having health insurance isn't the worst thing to ever happen?
--------------------
I don't think it's tyranny at all, I think it's long overdue. Americans are fleeced for their medical care. Insurance companies pay too much for services (whether medically necessary or not) and the uninsured pay even more--unless they don't pay at all, in which case you and I pay one way or another. We pay more than twice as much as the citizens of other countries for identical prescriptions, we pay by far the most for medical care while achieving the 37th-nest outcomes, and bankruptcy due to medical bills is rising in the US, while it is virtually nonexistent elsewhere...we're being fleeced, with precious little recourse. That's tyranny. It makes far more sense to mandate access to primary care rather than just emergency room care. I'm sure that more than one illness that could have been treated at a clinic with $24 worth of medicine has wound up days or weeks later in the ER with the taxpayers on the hook for $35,000 worth of Emergency services.
