I see what you're saying, but the Feds are limited in their authority over States. In theory the States have much much more power over individuals than the Feds do.

So yes, if Virginia decides it wants to force you to buy insurance, they can, if it's allowed under their State constitution. It is their sphere of power, not neccessarily the Feds.
