The debate over the health-care bill in the House of Representatives has come to center on a single topic: How many Americans will be covered under its auspices.


For the left, the answer to this question has always been: Every single American.

Americans today do not want Liberty.  They want freedom to do what they want without consequences, without responsibility, and everything handed to them by the government via empowering them to take from the Producers to redistribute to those they determine deserve a handout.

Marxism in it's purest description:  FROM EACH - TO EACH.

We have become a Marxist society, both parties are enshrining it - and the majority of the populace demand it.

They are just liars who refuse to call it for what it is.

Then again we can no longer determine what is right or wrong, or that the plumbing we are born with is actually what gender we are - so it should be no surprise that the fools we have become would embrace tyranny as its master and lord.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

Well of course.  You cannot be free to do as you wish if someone else is footing the bill for the consequences, donchaknow.

If all I want is a warm feeling, I should just wet my pants.
