I seriously doubt that all citizens owned firearms and were a member of the militia. Some didn't even support the revolution.1792? What fool didn't already own a firearm? Basically citizens were the militia for common defense.

What I read from your statement was you cant argue against my point so youve thrown in a red herring.
You've made an unreasonable request that has nothing to do with my statement that Private Health Insurance is already rationed and it would be if it were regulated or not...IN FACT, if it were completely unregulated, I would wager a years wages, it would be MORE rationed to increase the profits of the health insurance companies.
No YOU used unregulated private insurance companies as an example of something like it exists. You lose. The better comparision would be current insurance practices on service availability to Obamacare in a budget bind. See, that is why the board Obamacare created exists, to ration care further than it would start out.
You mean IPAB? That board? That doesn't even begin to function for another two years?
And again with the red herring.
If both systems are rationed care, then arguing for or against either one on that basis is irrelevant.

The mandate does not include everyone. Among the exceptions undocumented immigrants, American Indians, those in prison and those with certain religious objections.In 1792, just three years after ratifying the constitution, Congress passed a law requiring every able-bodied male to purchase a firearm. If congress can pass a law requiring the purchase of gun, then surely they can pass a law requiring the purchase health insurance. In fact, during John Adams presidency, merchant seaman were required by insurance. Draftees into the military have been required to purchase items such drivers licenses, and even weapons. This is certainly not the first time the government has forced people to make purchase.
Note, in all the cited examples, specific groups were selected, not everyone.
Guns are in the Constitution, healthcare, nope.
