Should Muslims be Exempt from Buying Health Insurance Under the New Health Care Law?

Muslims are specifically exempted from the government mandate to purchase insurance and also from the penalty tax for being uninsured. Islam considers insurance to be “gambling”, “risk-taking” and “usury” and is thus banned. Muslims are specifically granted exemption based on this.

Virtually all other Americans will face crippling IRS liens placed against all their assets, including their houses and pension plans, and face hard prison time if they refuse to buy insurance or pay the penalty tax. Meanwhile, Louis Farrakhan will have no such penalty and will have 100% of his health needs paid for by the de facto government insurance. Non-Muslims will be paying a tax to provide full medical care to all Muslims in the U.S.

I have nothing at all against Muslims, but do you think this is fair?
