Hey lefties! Do you guys really want to be forced to buy health insurance<\/a>? Is it even legal to force someone to pay for health insurance?<\/p>\n

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.
\nThe New York senator has criticized presidential rival Barack Obama for pushing a health plan that would not require universal coverage. Clinton has not always specified the enforcement measures she would embrace, but when pressed on ABC’s “This Week,” she said: “I think there are a number of mechanisms” that are possible, including “going after people’s wages, automatic enrollment.”
\nClinton said such measures would apply only to workers who can afford health coverage but refuse to buy it, which puts undue pressure on hospitals and emergency rooms. With her proposals for subsidies, she said, “it will be affordable for everyone.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Who is she to say who can afford it? What if they want to use their money for something else? I guess she thinks because she’s president she can dictate how we spend our money.
