The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in King v. Burwell three weeks from now, and the possibility that the justices might uphold the health care “reform” law as written has driven our liberal friends to the edge of lunacy. This is never a long journey for anyone on the left, of course, but they have arrived at the precipice with unusual alacrity this time. Their predictions about the outcome should the Court rule that “established by the state” actually means “established by the state” have gone from the merely portentous to the downright apocalyptic in only a few months.

Read how insane that sounds, this is the tyranny we are living under today in the “land of the free” USA. We got the enemy as President and we are mandated to buy a companies product. Wouldn’t you like that law? You own a company and the US government mandates the public buy your product?

It is already doing all three.
You are, in essence, a serf on a health insurance plantation. Maybe not a slave, but certainly an indentured servant.
“Maybe not a slave, but certainly an indentured servant.”
From January first to somewhere around the end of April,
every hour you work is fore the government.
