I think I made the most important point.
Romney was wrong, his justification for forced insurance is flawed, and most importantly, the idea didn't frigging work.
And why the heck your sudden concern over people living off other people's productivity? It's the core philosophy of the modern Democratic Party. It is not an improvement to formalize people paying for other people's health care by using taxpayer money to "buy" uninsured people insurance and penalizing those who are handling their own affairs.
