OBAMA is smart not to buck Buckley's "freedom to be left alone" : MANDATE WON'T FLY

Advertisements [?]

Obama's reluctance to force adults to pay for Health insurance shows a real sensitivity
to a deep-seated American reluctance to let the Goverment into all aspects of life.

The idea of fines, wage-garnishing etc. to force an adult to purchace health insurance just does not sit well with many folk.

With the MSM "honoring" the great libertarian Will Buckley's passing, I am glad Obama is not the one arguing for "NO FREEDOM to be left alone."
