How Many Euphemisms Are There For “Theft”?

Clinton health plan may mean tapping pay:

WASHINGTON – Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday she might be willing to garnish the wages of workers who refuse to buy health insurance to achieve coverage for all Americans.

The New York senator has criticized presidential rival Barack Obama for pushing a health plan that would not require universal coverage. Clinton has not always specified the enforcement measures she would embrace, but when pressed on ABC’s “This Week,” she said: “I think there are a number of mechanisms” that are possible, including “going after people’s wages, automatic enrollment.”

Clinton said such measures would apply only to workers who can afford health coverage but refuse to buy it, which puts undue pressure on hospitals and emergency rooms. With her proposals for subsidies, she said, “it will be affordable for everyone.”

Of course it will be affordable for everyone, especially when you STEAL from the most productive citizens and when you STRIP their liberties from them. These Dems make the silliest fuss about how our government should not be “spying” on us, how we should not be in this stupid war in Iraq, about how we shouldn’t sacrifice our freedoms for security, yet they go on to say in the same goddamn breath that we should sacrifice our freedoms so everyone can have cheap health care, which is a form security and wellbeing.

To me, the biggest difference in the government doing what it thinks it needs to do to protect us from terrorists and the government doing what it thinks it needs to do to give us cheap health care is that people are largely incapable of insulating themselves from the threat of terrorists. I can’t collect foreign intelligence, I can’t tell the State or Defense Departments to work whatever magic they might have. I am extremely dependent on this government to protect me from military threats, whereas I and other people are less dependent on the government in regards to health care.

Has any of these Dems explained why taking away freedoms and liberties for cheap health care better than taking away freedoms and liberties in order to kill terrorists before they kill me?
