Why are people comparing mandated health insurance to car insurance?

You are not forced to buy car insurance if you don't have a car. You have the right to not own a car. So why can't we have the right to not have health insurance??
--------------------
We can and do; NO ONE has said that you MUST have health insurance. The point of "ObamaCare" was that, if people couldn't afford health insurance through the private sector, they COULD through the government. Edit: Giachetta pointed something out to me via private message, and I agree with her on it - if people choose NOT to have health care, they should NOT be fined for making said choice. That, I think, is just folly.
