Mandatory Health Care

Last night I was watching the news when I found out about the new Health Care bill. First off I have been trying to find a copy of the bill to read for myself, which I have been unable to find. A few points that I have heard about the bill is that insurance will be mandatory for everyone to get which sounds pretty socialist to me. They keep comparing this to car insurance, car insurance is mandatory "if you own a car". Since this is the land of the free there is a way to not get car insurance, you can ride your bike, or the bus maybe. Yet health insurance you will have no choice, the only way to live without it is to move out of the country or die. I have a problem with this, I personally do have health insurance and I don't plan on getting rid of it but I think this is the exact opposite of what this country stands for. We are suppose to be the land of the free but we keep making stuff mandatory and that is just anti-American. I know this isn't the biggest problem we are facing in the country right now but this really stands out to me as becoming an issue in the future. Starting with the government owning shares in the car companies then making health insurance mandatory are just the base for the country to turn toward a socialist government. All of these little changes that we may think are nothing major will eventually add up to the United States moving from a federal constitutional republic to a Socialist government.
