It has been two years since the passage of ObamaCare.
Yet not one day goes by in which people complain about the raging heresy of the government dictating to individuals that they must purchase healthcare.
We do not need the government telling us what to do. The government must withdraw from informing individual citizens what they must purchase.
This unconscionable infiltration of state power into the sale and maintenance of health insurance has only caused prices to skyrocket, while pushing health insurance companies to fold altogether.
The government has no business, has no right to be invading our daily lives, intruding upon our liberty to purchase something or do without entirely.
Instead of celebrating the second year of an unacceptable intrusion of government force into our lives, let us rather celebrate the rise of the Tea Party, a dedicated cohort of non-organized partisans who have demanded that the White House stay in Washington and stay out of our individual homes.
Let us also celebrate that the ObamaCare law has been brought before the Supreme Court at last, at the behest of twenty-two rival states, all of which opposes this overt disrespect to state, local, and individual authority.
Bureaucrats in the Nation's capital have no right or reason — none whatsoever — to be directing the funding and disbursement of monies in order to insure those who choose to go without health care. There is simply no rational conservative argument to defend a health insurance mandate.
We would all be better off if state-wide restrictions were dropped, if individuals could purchase their policies without having to drop coverage once they changed or lost their jobs, and if we would reward individuals for investing in individual health savings accounts. This is the way to run healthcare, from the individual on up, not top down from the federal government.
