Democrats are talking about imposing a tax on soda, to dissuade people from buying soda, which can help cause obesity and diabetes. Those illnesses, you see, drive up the cost of our country's health care, and with the Democrats wanting to have the government run health care, they'll do anything to lower costs. (I've heard that some Dems want to tax auto driving since there are a lot of accidents on the highways and that drives up health care costs...some want to tax walking since people invariably trip and fall and need medical care...some want to tax sitting on a couch since that, too, leads to obesity and weak hearts...some want to tax talking since we sometimes get punched in the face for what we said and need medical attention...and some want to ban thinking since we think we ought to go to a hospital and that drives up costs...Dems need not be personally concerned about that last one.)
The tax on soda would make me pay for my freedom to satisfy my thirst as I see fit, to live my life and take whatever risks I choose, as I see fit to do...rather than as they (the Dems) see fit for me to do. America, where have thou gone?
The other day I heard a leading Democrat saying that corporations are not individuals, as such they have no rights and "we (the government) can do anything we want with them." Of course corporations are individual...corporations are nothing more than a legal form, a way, for individuals to do business...and those individuals do not lose their unalienable rights when they choose that form. If corporations aren't individuals with protected rights, neither would be partnerships, associations, married couples (marriage is just a legal form in which individuals choose to conduct their personal lives), etc. Nonsense.
The obvious common denominator in the Dems approach to government-run health care and corporations is their desire to control our lives...all phases, if they can get away with it.
The even more insidious common denominator? They don't think the rest of us are smart enough, capable enough, resourceful enouth, responsible enough, to care for ourselves in a free environment. At heart, they do not believe in freedom and lie when they pledge allegiance to the idea of "liberty and justice for all."
So now we know the scope of "the change" Obama ranted about but never identified, and millions of voters blindly cast him into the White House.Now we know the most dangerous enemy America faces today.
