It may be more unconscious than not, but the herd mentality is a human trait. * * *

I attended a meeting last night where Rob McKenna, Attorney General of Wa State and party to the suit spoke and he addressed how he thinks the SC will go and specifically mentioned Kennedy. He mentioned that something Kennedy said made him nervous and that was something to the affect that as it is young people will be made to pay into the system and if that is taken away the whole thing is in trouble. For some reason that really bothered McKenna and he isn't confident that Kennedy will vote with the conservatives. I believe this is it here: "JUSTICE KENNEDY: And the government tells us that's because the insurance market is unique. And in the next case, it'll say the next market is unique. But I think it is true that if most questions in life are matters of degree, in the insurance and health care world, both markets — stipulate two markets — the young person who is uninsured is uniquely proximately very close to affecting the rates of insurance and the costs of providing medical care in a way that is not true in other industries. That's my concern in the case." npr.org
