Under the Constitution, Congress has the authority "to regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes." You'll notice that commercial activities by individuals is not on that list, so there is no specific constitutional authority for the federal government to mandate that a private citizen engage in commerce. Furthermore, the Tenth Amendment sends powers not specifically delegated to the federal government back to the states. It should be fairly obvious that ObamaCare's individual mandate is unconstitutional.
