'The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only legitimate object of good government.' --Thomas Jefferson

Now that Barack Hussein Obama has undermined free enterprise by nationalizing major financial and manufacturing sectors of our economy, he has set his sights on the health care sector, which comprises almost 18 percent of the U.S. economy.

This shouldn't surprise us. After all, he did promise a 'fundamental transformation of the United States of America,' and his chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, did cite the current economic crisis as the means for doing so. 'Rule 1: Never allow a crisis to go to waste,' Emanuel said. 'They are opportunities to do big things.'

Of course, there is NO constitutional authority or precedent for this massive government intrusion into the private sector. But then, when do Leftists look to any authority higher than themselves?"
