Ambushed by Obamacare

Daniel Greenfield notes that with Obamacare we have finally made the big move from Problemtown to Solutionville.

The Americans ambushed by ObamaCare, the scam artist's dream of a tax paid to a third-party in exchange for benefits accrued to a fourth party, still thought they had the freedom to despise the meddling politicians in both parties and ignore most things the government did, while living their own lives. They had seen their lives bedeviled by a thousand regulations, but still thought it was possible to hold the middle and reject all the solutions by asserting that they were not the problem.

You eat too much or you don't pay enough taxes, you drive your car too often, you haven't bought solar panels for your roof, you browse extremist websites when you should be browsing government informational sites for tips on how to do or not do all of the above. Most of all, you don't understand what a great problem you are for the people running this country into the ground between the Atlantic and the Pacific.

There is no neutrality when dealing with people who reject the very concept of opting out of a solution. There is no middle ground with people who don't believe there is a middle ground, believing instead that every human on earth is part of the problem and can only stop being the problem by following their directive.We are a nation in which everyone is entitled to everything, except the right to opt out of all the entitlements and the cost of paying for them.
