And just how is any corporation imposing tyranny upon you mookie? The thing is, you need not buy their products or services if you feel so oppressed by them. They can't make you patronize their goods or services(like government), nor can they levy taxes (such as health care taxes) to make people who work, give up some of their liberty or property for others (like government can do).

TDK1044 is correct. If government mandated health care is what you want, if you believe individual taxpayers should be paying for you and your health care, July 4th is not your holiday. You have no business celebrating Liberty when your goal is to infringe on the liberty of others. Washington, Jefferson, and Adams are not a part of your heritage. You may want to be reliant and fearful of government mookie, but some of us actually crave freedom and prefer personal responsibility, and the freedom of choices which come with it. My personal liberty and property is non-negotiable for me. People need to have a sense of responsibility for themselves and their own healthcare. I am merely responsible for me and my own family. And each taxpayer is responsible unto themselves accordingly.

Screw your government run healthcare if it infringes on my liberty. And as things look....it does.

Nice to see some barriers to this stuff starting to form.
