Is it fair to send people to jail who don’t buy health insurance?

That is one of the requirements passed by the House of Representatives last Saturday, and Speaker Pelosi sees no problem with it. http://hotair.com/archives/2009/11/12/pe… Should it be a crime to pay as you go for medical services, i.e., to be self-insured?
--------------------
According to Pelosi it is "fair." I don't see it that way. The government cannot require you to purchase something. Some will argue they require auto insurance, but you're not forced to buy it if you don't have a car -- only if you want to drive your car. Instead of mandating health insurance, why don't they mandate exercise three times a week for 30 minutes?
