Moral duty to cause massive inflation, raise taxes and kill the economy? Thanks Al for your warped view on healthcare and the environment.

OK, maybe it’s just me.

But what is moral about using the threat of force to extort money from people to pay for something they don’t want to participate in?

If I needed a $50,000 surgery, would it be moral for me to rob a bank to get the money?

Would it even be moral to accost 50,000 people at gunpoint and force each of them to give me a dollar?

What an arrogant turd. Clearly his ill-gotten wealth hasn’t mellowed him out any.

You forgot to mention contributing to the untimely deaths of people who would normally be receiving the best possible health care under the current system...

Plato suggested that society be ruled by a Philosopher-King.

Well, Gore really sucks in that role.

Gore, you have a moral duty to accept the same health care you and your ilk want to force on the rest of us.

Actually, what this country really has "a moral obligation" to do is to give this gibbering Onanist a good, hard atomic wedgie.

This from the guy who flies around the world in a private jet spewing 6,000 gallons of oxidized jet fuel into the atmosphere in order to collect millions of dollars making fiery speeches about environmental dangers.
