Who CARES about "Freedom" when You Don't Have Your Bread & Fleshpots?

[mythociate]

That's sort-of the logic being applied 'by government' (I've got some Bible-thumper friends who would say it's "what Obama is doin` to us") by MAKING us buy insurance---sorta like 'bearing The Mark on your hand or forehead,' as "having insurance" is today's way of saying 'I'm a paid-member of the club, and they'll cover my costs as long as I pay my dues on time.'

(The link goes to a couple times the Hebrews in Exodus complained to Moses: 'Well, we're hungry; shouldn't we rather be well-fed-&-shackled than free-&-hungry?')

And health-care is ONE of the ways the government is 'tempting' us to be that way ... 'Shouldn't you rather be paid-for-&-"shackled" than unpaid-but-free?' And the health-care law ... or nearly ANY insurance-company ... SHACKLES us to the health-care they'll pay-for from the providers they can make deals with ...

better-than making US pay for health-care & find deals with the providers, but That's Freedom
