That’s not just an outlandish headline designed to make you click through to this article. It’s a question George Will once asked on ABC. And it’s a question that nine Supreme Court Justices will be asking themselves next Spring.

Can the federal government force you to eat fruits and vegetables every day? Can the federal government force you to buy a GM car? Can the federal government force you to buy health insurance?

Early next year the Supreme Court will decide whether Obamacare’s mandate, that every American buy health insurance, is allowed under the Constitution.

    I don't think it's just to force them to join, but no one said they couldn't encourage and convince them to join.

    People have the right to lie their lives within the law. Last time I checked, consuming too many calories wasn't up to the same caliber as killing or raping people, so they should just be left alone.

    Sure, if they agree that we can trim their excesses by trimming the perks & bennies they put on the pounds with.

    Well, you complain about the nanny state (and rightly so), but you'll also complain about the fat people raising your health insurance rates.

    they could. hell they are taking obease children and taking them away from their parents. which is stupid and not cool. i can tell if the parents are abusing them but really. they are actinmg stupid. if they had an obease child they would get their children taken away. so all the people that are fat should gang up and smother them. besides nobady is fat. its either genes or what you dont do. mainly in a lot of documentations and discovery people taht are fat have it mainly because of the genetics. proven. end of story. so yea. f them
