SEE: Are young Americans paying attention to Obamacare ads?
Jennifer Smola,
USA TODAY November 20, 2013
"On the other side of the issue is the Opt Out campaign, a product of the non-profit organization Generation Opportunity.
Opt Out has employed Web videos and events on college campuses like the University of Miami featuring "Creepy Uncle Sam,"who is the visual tool the campaign is using to demonstrate the"creepy" and "intrusive" nature of Obamacare, Generation Opportunity President Evan Feinberg says.
"Uncle Sam is a symbol of patriotism," Feinbergsays. "Creepy Uncle Sam is what happens when the government oversteps itsbounds."
And why shouldnt Generation Opportunity not promote an Op tOut campaign? The fact is, our progressive crowd in Washington __ and this includes our lying president__ are attempting to enslave our nations younger generation into paying for the health care needs of its radical and socialist political base. And in return for their free health care,Obama and his progressive crowd on Capitol Hill expect them to use their vote to keep them in power! This is how socialists, communists and progressives work. They first obtain political power by offering free stuff, thereby creating a massive voting block dependent upon government for their subsistence, which is then literally forced into prostituting their vote to keep riding the free stuff wagon. Fortunately we were warned against this trap of enslavement:
A POWER OVER A MAN's SUBSISTENCE AMOUNTS TO A POWER OVER HIS WILL ____ Hamilton, No. 79 Federalist Papers
But there is even a better reason for our younger generationto Opt Out of Obamacare. The American people have never had a debate to grant a power to the federal government to regulate their medical and health care decisions, and then granted this regulatory power to Congress under Article V of our Constitution which is the only lawful way Congress may exercise a new power. In addition, of the specific taxing powers granted to Congress [imposts, duties, excises, a tax upon incomes without apportionment and various types of direct taxes] not one can be levied as the shared responsibility payment [the individual mandate] and be within the limits of the tax selected!
Finally, it is an outright attack upon the birth right of our younger generation to pursue their own happiness to demand them to buy health insurance which is not tailored to meet their own medical and healthcare needs, and surely would not include the costly kind of coverage for an elderly person who has contributed to their own decaying medical condition through an unhealthy life style.
Again I say thumbs up to Generation Opportunity and Evan Feinberg for standing up to a despotic federal government which has actively worked to eviscerate our Constitution and ignore the defined and limited powers granted by our Constitution, not to mention how it now woks to enslave our nations younger generation!

Honest money and honest taxation, the Key to Americas future Prosperity ___ from Prosperity Restored by the StateRate Tax Plan, no longer in print.
There is a reason to be optimistic about this generation. Personally, I think my children have been taught the lessons of freedom and liberty. They understand the debt that they and their children will face. I came to age at the time of Reagan. My father came to age at the time of Goldwater. I believe liberalism/progressivism skips generations. Conservatism is passed on to generations by loving parents.

A legislative act which "impinges upon a fundamental right explicitly or implicitly secured by the Constitution is presumptively unconstitutional." See: Harris v. McRae United States Supreme Court (1980) Also see City of Mobile v. Bolden, 466 U.S. 55, 76, 100 S.Ct. 1490, 64 L.Ed.2d 47 (1980)
