They are usually ridiculous arguments. There are already many "government mandates" that have been in place for years in the United States. That sure hasn't led to a law requiring all citizens to "maintain a food stockpile."

Big differnce between allowing/legalizing and requiring IMO If two women were required to marry each other or all citizens were required to smoke pot you may have a comparison.
What law/mandate requires every US citizen to purchase a private product?
If there is one it's the Obamacare lawyers' holy grail.
