1. Truck drivers are required to purchase, and carry, tire chains in some states during the winter, whether they need them or not.
2. All motorist's are required to purchase insurance. You will be fined if you don't have it.
3. Every business is required to purchase a license before they can open.
4. Most homeowners are required to purchase a building permit before doing home improvements.
5. In most states, fire inspections are mandatory for businesses and they may be required to purchase updated protection equipment if needed.
6. Many locations, such as the town I live near (Denison, Texas) have home appearance standards under which the city may require you to purchase and install such things as blinds or drapes (that actually happened to my son). You can be fined if you don't.
The list goes on and on.
Where on earth do you get the idea that government can't require you to purchase something? Or, that it's something Barack Obama dreamed up all on his own? Hell, every time you buy a car you're required to purchase airbags, whether you want them or not!
I realize you'll probably never be able to see the difference, BUT...........
Taxes/penalties on all of the endeavors you mentioned are easily avoided by simply not participating; i.e., don't buy or drive a car, don't open a business, don't buy a house, yada yada.
Our only alternative to not participating on O'Care is to stop breathing.
See how easy it is to understand when you use your brain?
All Americans are REQUIRED to get married and have Children or face a tax penalty.........
No your taxes stay the same if your have children, but then they give some back, because its a refund, so you know, the kids can eat, and be clothed, did you know if no one had children, there would be no America in 50-55 years.
Maybe the French police dept can't afford to buy the breathalyzer tests anymore.
Ever think of that ? Maybe it's a budget problem on their part.
I would say the solution to that is to have them buy the tests as they have been, then on any positive tests that result in a conviction, the offender must pay a fine that covers the cost of the kit. Those that are a negative, the police eat the cost. This way, those who do not drink or drink responsibly aren't picking up the costs for those who are not. By dictating that all carry such, it is just another cost imposed on law abiding citizens to cover the unlawful.

More likely it will be used in conjunction with the whole "green/sustainability" scheme to force people into lifestyles that fit the "agendas" expectations. This is just another part of the "control" aspects of those movements.

Not really, it is a tax penalty.....Listen, I am for the ACA. I work in healthcare and I know how broken the system is. The bill is not this scary monster that will kill America. In fact, the Heritage Foundation really drafted the core elements of this bill using their battle cry of individual responsibility.
We can not sustain the current way of doing things when you have people who do not have insurance getting sick or hurt. EVERYONE needs to have insurance.

Where on earth do you get the idea that simply counting a list of intrusions makes them legitimate things to do?
You know, following your logic, cannibals can say eating people is perfectly legitimate because they are doing it? Killing native Americans in the 1800's was OK because the Union army was doing it? Black people really were not human beings because the Supreme Court said so a couple hundred years ago?
Spending your entire life on your knees is terrible for you posture ... in case no one has bothered to inform you. But I can see the advantages for you boot lickers .... if you're going to lick every boot that comes along nowadays, you might just as well stay down there.
