SAN JOSE, Calif. — President Barack Obama on Friday encouraged the uninsured or those paying high prices for health insurance to sign up for coverage under his health care law and urged opponents to stop wasting time continuing to fighting its implementation.

Obama used a trip to California to highlight how the state is implementing the Affordable Care Act and rebut continuing criticism over his signature legislative achievement. He touted an effort in the state to recruit Hispanics in particular to the health care exchanges that are being created to help millions of now-uninsured consumers afford coverage.

President Barack Obama on Friday encouraged the uninsured . . . to the health care exchanges that are being created to help millions of now-uninsured consumers afford coverage.

Obama needs young, healthy Americans to sign up for and pay for health insurance that costs far more than what they get for it. There is no other way for him to fund ObamaCare within the budget. ObamaCare "saves" money by raiding the incomes of young Americans to pay for sick, older Americans and for politically popular elective treatments.

Latinos and young people, eh?

Yes people - even though you are uninsured now, please sign up for expensive health that 1) the Gov’t will give you for free anyway, or 2) you don’t need because you’re young.

Yeah, that will work.

Count me out. You Collectivists can take you mandate and shove it. The only mandate around here is the Constitutional mandate on government to PROTECT OUR FREEDOMS and STAY OUT OF OUR LIVES.

A major aspect of our laws is an intricate web of cost-shifting (and responsibility shifting). The Democrats are worse about this, but the Pubbies are not very good either. They just pick different winners and losers.

The mandate is backed by firepower.

The IRS enforces this law, which means quiet young men and women with holstered pistols inevitably come to your door.

And they WILL kill you if you don’t obey.

“1) the Gov’t will give you for free anyway, or 2) you don’t need because you’re young.”

A basic tenant of human nature is that people only do things that are “good” for them. Good here means it profits them in some way. If you’re illegal the emergency room can’t even ask your name. Why would you buy something you can get for free? And, if you’re not illegal and they can’t prevent you from buying “insurance” when you’re already sick, then why not wait until you need it and then cancel it when you’re well again?

This bit of legislation will fail because it was written with unicorn blood on fairy dust. The people who wrote it were utopians and we know how well utopia works.

You know what? Fine. I don’t think that will happen, but if it did, free people have to willing to fight and die if necessary for their freedom. This is where I draw the line. I’ll be a lawyer soon, so I’ll have some (legal) firepower of my own. Either way, free Americans cannot be cowed by these bullies. We must stand up and fight. “Give me liberty or give me death” to me isn’t just a nice sentiment - it’s what we need in our hearts right now.

Never going to happen.

I know a dozen lawyers. Half are communists, and the other half despise their jobs because they realize the system is rigged and they’re hustling for an ever-shrinking pot of lawsuit bucks.

They’re whores, in other words.

That’s how the real world works, as you’ll find out when you grow up.

The peasants aren’t going to wake up because sports has them dazzled like infants with squeaky toys.

You aren’t going to do anything to rock the boat because you’ll have bills to pay.

And you’ve been out of high school for how long?
