Simple: When it's a tax.
If that's difficult to follow, don't be alarmed - our esteemed leaders in DC can't seem to keep it straight, either:
"When Congress required most Americans to obtain health insurance or pay a penalty, Democrats denied that they were creating a new tax. But in court, the Obama administration and its allies now defend the requirement as an exercise of the government�s �power to lay and collect taxes.�
As we've already noted, there was never any doubt that the individual mandate is evil because it is a tax on simply living. There is no legal requirement to own or drive a car, or buy or sell property, or eat or drink. But there is now a tax on breathing.
What will they think of next?
