>>>. Comparing mandated weight watchers to paying a small share of YOUR health care now? Is there no limit to the small minded, simplistic, puerile thought process of the right? You are trying to change the subject because you have no response to the point. The question is a simple one. If the federal government can mandate the purchase of health insurance for the 'common good' and the 'health of the individual', why can it not mandate weight watchers for precisely the same reasons? If you cannot provide a cogent, specific, and relevant answer to this question then the individual Mandate cannot be supported on any rational basis.
