re: What gives the government (apparently at your behest) the right to force me to pay more for any product?
First, the Constitution which grants “police powers” to the states, and regulation of “interstate commerce” to itself.
Second, the laws of the state in which you live.
(Gee, I wish all questions were this simple to answer!)
Both of which are irrelevant here. You're right, that was easy.

I don’t have time to “put your nose into it” right this very moment ... but you 1) seem to have a very warped view of what is in the Constitution and 2) from a governmental standpoint don’t seem to have any regard for personal property or personal rights.
At the rate you’re going, you must have been all-in for Obama-care.
