“During the Sixth Circuit arguments, Judge Jeffrey Sutton, who was nominated by President George W. Bush, asked Kaytal if he could name one Supreme Court case which considered the same question as the one posed by the mandate, in which Congress used the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution as a tool to compel action.”

Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/historics/USSC_CR_0295_0495_ZO.html

I believe that in Schechter, the Commerce Clause was DENIED the power to compel action from a business. So I don't see the reason you're invoking it here - Schechter could actually be used AGAINST the individual mandate. In fact, Schechter was one of the limits the Roosevelt Administration finally reached in it's efforts to centralize commerce under federal law.

“Schechter could actually be used AGAINST the individual mandate”

That's why I posted it.
It should be.
The individual mandate violates the Tenth Amendment just as the Roosevelt Administration tried to do in Schechter.
The mandates are placed on small / medium sized businesses who operate solely intrastate.
