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.
I can't think of a more frightening thing that a politician of her stature has said outright. Your money really isn't your money. Why? Because it's the government's money. Why is it the government's money? Because you (we) are too stupid to know what to do with it. Our intelligence and our values are inadequate. But the government, which is apparently infallible, obviously knows better than I do about what's right for me. So they (the government) will take what is ours, because they know what is better for us (and we cannot care for ourselves).

Actually, I think it's a great idea for Hillary to suggest that. More people are going to hear that and go "wha??" are you nuts?
What I think is interesting is that the Democrats essentially have two far-left liberals/socialists running this year. No moderates. No pandering to the middle. Just a couple of far left candidates.
