Funny, the supposed "conservative" Mitt Romney already tried this in MA, and costs skyrocketed. Yet they want to duplicate the policy on a national basis?

Beyond the fact that it's unconstitutional, and anti-economic, why not let the states try it the way MA did, and see what works? Why have one policy madate the compliance of EVERYONE? Remember, the larger the area of control, the greater chance that more people will be harmed by policy errors. At least the founding fathers got that right.
