ordering citizens to buy products from companies that make big donations.

Congress and the President are on the verge of getting the power to do just that.

At least they are starting to be honest about who they serve.

Or they can call the fee a tax and say when we buy insurance we earn a credit against the tax.

It is amazing how emo people get over this issue. There are real reasons to not like Obamacare but this is really just an issue for people who are easily caught up in semantic BS.

Ohh look who started the thread.

We can trust the Democrats and Republicans. I'm sure they won't abuse this new power. They all seem very honest and fair.

Look at the military budget. I think it is pretty clear you are crying over old news.

The government made you buy your own military?

So your important logical distinction between the two is that in the case of Obamacare I actually own something that my money is going towards.


Your logic is awesome paul.

The distinction is that it is a new power the politicians are about to get and they will use it to force us to buy things sold by their campaign contributors.
