Just because I can't resist getting caught up in an analogy argument:

If you wanted to compare seat-belts to this situation, the seat belt situation would have to be something like this:

a) It is not a legal requirement to wear a seatbelt.
b) Some car companies offer a free seat belt option, some don't offer seat belts at all.
c) The government is now forcing all car companies to provide the option of free seat belts, even though seat belts are not a legal requirement.

After all, the government does not mandate the use of condoms. If they did, we'd have to lock up all the parents... So in brief, the seat belt analogy completely misses the point.
