No way in hell should people be forced to buy health insurance from the same bloody thieves who are ripping the public off now.
If we can't get a health care plan with a public option than I sure as hell hope that we don't get one at all.

What I think will happen is that they will pass a plan the requires you to get health insurance and if you choose not to you will be fined. If you make too little money to afford it there will be some kind of financial aid to help you pay for it.
To me the problem with this is that it doesn't really create competition. If you are poor and have no insurance then the government steps in to pay for your insurance you will have little motivation to actually shop around and find a good deal since you won't really be paying for it.
