not otherwise want. like what things? that s the big question. thank you very much. live outside the chilly supreme court. and other examples that were used by the justices during the discussion yesterday, two-hour discussion, what else could you be forced to buy? to pick up on what steve centanni was saying. could you be forced to buy cell phones? scalia even said at one point, could i be forced to eat broccoli? maybe he s not a broccoli fan like george bush wasn t. what about burial services? i mean, you could argue that this list could go on and on and on. it s central to this whole argument. let s listen to the justices. the same, it seems to me, would be true, say, for the market in emergency services. police, fire, ambulance, roadside assistance, whatever. you don t know when you re going to need it. you re not sure that you will. so can the government require you to buy a cell phone because that would facilitate responding when you need emergency services? suppose you an
