I just don't get it.  Why does Congress...i.e. Nancy Pelosi think we must have this public option?  She seems to want to remake the system for the few without health care and make it mandatory.  Since when is government "Big Brother"?  Next they want to tell us what to eat, how much exercise, what our thermostat must be at, what kind of car, how long to live, what drugs allowed for our age...and on and on...what business is it of theirs?  If we can afford to keep out thermostat at a certain setting...leave us alone.  Stop trying to be the thought police or the food police or inserting a government bureaucrat into our health care decisions.

Here is something written by author and playwright Walter A. Meares:

The Course Ahead

The way ahead is fraught with danger to the Republic.  We are very
much at risk of being asked to vote ourselves into oblivion so we can
embrace a perfect society envisioned by those who will not yet define
it or subject it to a fair and open evaluation by the people - the voters,
those who must give their consent.  Remember our nation is founded
on the premise that governments conceived by the people derive their
just powers from the consent of the governed.

The Obama administration seems to want what Thomas Sowell calls : "economic justice".
From a Daily News article: "What does "economic justice" mean, except that you want something that someone else produced, without having to produce anything yourself in return?"
