Re: Christine O'Donnell
^He with the help of the FED infused toxic trillions into the system ensuring we have no way of returning the money without hardcore austerity implementation. Bushy should have never rescued AIG when their fallout was a direct consequence of risky mortgages (greedy bankers in conjunction with foolish political mandates for those who have no business possessing a mortgage made for the perfect easy credit disaster). As RunningMan put it in another thread, it's the equivalent of can-kicking. At some point, you have to pay the piper after printing up all that toxicity.
[QUOTE=res0nat0r;902164]There is nothing wrong with being penalized for not paying into the healthcare system if you have the ability to pay for it but choose not to. This is the one of the richest countries in the world with the highest rate of uninsured people, so the system is broken. If you don't want to throw money you can afford into the pile to help your fellow citizens out then you are just a cheap ass bastard who complains about this, but will go to Ruth Chris' tonight and buy a filet for 35.99$ and then go hit Jackass 2 for 12.50$ with a 18.00$ popcorn (extra butter of course) and a coke. Your selfishness has failed.[/QUOTE]
Your asinine and presumptive analysis fails. I'm struggling enough as IT IS to be penalized further for not giving into the demands of you authoritative types. America by and large agrees. And this kind of thing is happening in liberal hotbeds all over the country, the latest with the banning of the happy meal in San Fransicko, FFS.
This article describes the overwhelming sentiment on election night best:

[quote]"These ideas," Boudreaux says, "are almost exclusively about how other people should live their lives. These are ideas about how one group of people (the politically successful) should engineer everyone else's contracts, social relations, diets, habits and even moral sentiments." Liberalism's ideas are "about replacing an unimaginably large multitude of diverse and competing ideas . . . with a relatively paltry set of 'Big Ideas' that are politically selected, centrally imposed, and enforced by government, not by the natural give, take and compromise of the everyday interactions of millions of people."

Also, the right to free health insurance is not granted by the constitution by damn and you entitlement statists attempting to redefine it with your social engineering will be (a component of) our undoing:
