Forum Post: Here's how the individual mandate affects interstate commerce:

• When you don't buy health insurance, you might get sick.

• When you get sick, you need to be driven to the hospital.

• When you go to the hospital, you eat hospital food and puke it into a bag.

• When you puke in a bag, your ribs get sore, forcing you to cancel your yoga class.

• When you cancel your yoga class, you might end up driving to another state instead and visiting a vending machine along the interstate.

Don't affect interstate commerce. Buy things from the insurance corporations.
