RomneyCare -- manufacturing criminals

This is an old story, but one aspect of it was largely overlooked - Mitt Romney wants to make criminals out of people who don't buy this health insurance plan of his.

The "car analogy" is of course fatuous since people can opt to not drive a car and are not be punished as criminals should they choose to do that.
