Government Mandates

For those of us who support the government intervening in the insurance market only to make things more expensive to make things better for everyone, I have a question:

If you support the government forcing Americans to buy insurance AND you support the government forcing insurance companies to offer free birth control, why don’t you support the government requiring people to purchase fresh fruit AND support the government forcing insurance companies to offer free broccoli?

      I might make the argument that rubbers are to health in the same way that bananas are to health. Very hard to talk about the “health” in health insurance without talking about a correct diet.
