No doubt. That is an argument so retarded it is practically embarrassing; the fact that someone might engage in commerce in the future constitutes his engaging in commerce now.
Glad you're a mind reader and a predicter of human behavior. The rest of us are not. If a person doesn't drive or own a car now, should the govt. make him buy car insurance anyway, assuming he will own one in the future?
That argument is retarded, in europe it's illegal to drive a car without proper insurance, with the only exception being taking the car out of the shop to nearby of your house
