Honestly, I think ‘slavery’ is a bit much. More like a protection racket. I think calling it slavery or akin to the Holocaust as someone else has here only makes us look crazy. It’s another social program we don’t want to pay for, with the added insult of forcing us to buy something. I don’t like it, and it stings, but it’s not quite the same as being strapped to a post and whipped for not picking enough cotton.
Isn’t it ironic the “first black president” has succeeded in enslaving us all?
All welfare, including Obamacare, is slavery. Any policy that steals the fruit of one’s labor in order to give it to another who did NOT earn serves to enslave the party that earned it.

I was just thinking, the Second Civil War will be about slavery too. We Americans have become slaves to our government.

I think calling it slavery is overselling the case. Call it what it is, a Socialist boondoggle that will reduce freedom, and the quantity and quality of health care received for almost all Americans, while increasing costs exponentially.
Nobody has seen how strongly this thing is opposed. The effort to eliminate this requires a coordinated effort from religious, cultural, corporate organizations all synchronized to bring this movement down with overwhelming political, cultural, and economic force. There is no way to be secure from this thing by merely repealling it. This whole movement requires a systematic marginalization from every angle not only to erase these bills from existence, but to stop it’s influences in the media and education establishments. Uprooting the weeds that are peppering the entire yard will take alot of work from alot of people. It will take about 50 years of vigilant, massive effort to get this nation back to some type of viable restoration. Politically deballing this president and replacing this congress is just a small starting point.
Republicans should put forth an amendment to say that if you pay into this system for the several years before the benefits come into effect and then you die before you are able to reap ANY benefits, you get all your money refunded.
Here’s an alternative meme: Repeal the Whole Deal!
