Media of the government, for the government, by the government.
Telling people what the government wants them to know.

Not just government owned - MANDATORY!!!

You will be REQUIRED to buy their insurance or face CIVIL AND CRIMINAL PENALTIES.

LIBERTY MEANS YOU CANNOT BE FORCED IN TO A CONTRACT YOU DON'T AGREE TO!!!

Over and over in the United States code you will see the following phrase "knowingly, willingly, and voluntarily..".

The fact that common law recognizes this is shown by how years ago, AND EVEN NOW, if an illiterate person wants to sign a contract, he writes his X on the line provided, and it is WITNESSED AND ATTESTED TO THE FACT IT WAS DONE, AND DONE WITHOUT COERCION!!

“The most “buried” story was an 804-word piece, headlined “Obama Urges Quick Action By Senators On Insurance,” that ran on page 16 of The New York Times.”
SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SURPRISE!!!

I need some more...WAY more information on this. The way I read it, Obama plans to simply force all businesses to pay for full coverage, including optical and dental, to all employees, and says he’ll “pay” for it by taxing the coverage he forces businesses to give employees. Therefore, the only slightly honest thing he’s said is that this scheme won’t raise the deficit, which would be damned right, because he’s forcing businesses to pay for a certain amount of coverage and then TAXING that same coverage. Sounds like a Ponzi scheme.
