4. Actually, the insurance companies are just the new tax man. Wall St is the lord duke who owns us
Mandate is just a way to have insurance companies be the money launderers to funnel money to Wall Street. That IS what they do with premiums payments, invest in stocks.

Since the American public wouldn't stand for direct payment of income withholdings to Wall Street (we didn't fall for the 'privatized Social Security' scam) the Wall St employees on the Hill found a more convoluted route.

We the People are basically being taxed to hold up the pyramid scheme that Wall Street has become.
