The mandate?
Has anybody emphasised the outrage the average American will feel,

when they first hear they will be forced to buy health insurance,

or face fines and or jail.

FoxNews will be running this 24/7.

2. Average Americans don't want health insurance?
And if the government gives them a subsidy, what do they think they should be able to do with it?

4. No. They want healthCARE
Insurance is freely available right now, if you can afford it.

5. They know they have to pay for the health care one way or another
If they can't afford it, they only can get it without paying for it if they are poor enough for Medicaid. If they can't afford insurance but can't qualify for Medicaid, what do they expect to do with the subsidy?
