For someone who has generally been pretty consistent in decrying wrong, regardless of from which party or ideology it comes from, its amazing the defensive indifference you're providing to Obama/Pelosi/Reid & Company for burying this piece of completely non-relevent healthcare mandates, within the body of a 2000+ page piece of Helathcare legislative crap
Sowell has misrepresented nothing of such, given the plethora of references indicating the same insidious placement of these non-healthcare Federal mandates, within a massive healthcare law
So you see....when you put a frog in a boiling pot (such as widespread restrictions of who can buy or sell gold), it's going to jump out immediately. However if you put that frog in some less than warm water, and slowly turn up the heat (such as an insidiously slow application of mandates tracking gold), it's very likely that Frog, will have no clue he just was boiled to death
Do we need now also bring out the slipperly slope arguement? It's not as accurate, but still can be applicable
