There is one group of Americans who would not be subject to the individual mandate - the Amish. This is because an individual mandate would go against their religious beliefs. However, under this assumption, there is another group of people in America who would also be exempt from Obamacare's individual mandate - Muslims. This is because Islam considers health insurance (or any risk insurance) to be forbidden.
Mark Tushnet a Harvard law professor points out, "Here the statute is going to say that people who are conscientiously opposed to paying for health insurance don't have to do it where the conscientious objection arises from religion ... And that's perfectly constitutional."
Would you convert to remain free?
