60. Actually it is

If you truly ban discrimination on pre-existing conditions, people should only ever buy insurance at the emergency room. Why for it pay before you need it?

You have to think things like this through.

Now if you think people will voluntarily buy insurance on their own, before they need it, then the mandate does not matter because no one will be forced to do anything that they have already done on their own.

So either it does not matter because it will be applied to no one, or it is essential. You pick.
