To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical. -- Thomas Jefferson
I would like for someone to show me exactly where in the constitution it says that our government has the authority to compel citizens to purchase health insurance, or face a fine. It's my understanding that just such a provision was passed in the house bill last night. I wonder if most people realize that this bill is "funded" (allegedly) by $400 billion in new taxes, and $500 billion in cuts to Medicare. That's right - half a trillion dollars stripped from healthcare for senior citizens. Great job, Congress! Get ready to have your asses handed to you on election day.
