I don't know if Obamacare can be passed, and if it does, survive the legal fights it faces… But, whether it does or not… I think I'm ready for a citizen's revolt. One where I promise that whatever means the fed intends to use to force my compliance with its wishes, I will not comply. For instance, the IRS is part of this scheme to force me to buy insurance. I will refuse to answer thier questions. I will refuse to buy “insurance of their choice”, as well. Further, not only would I like to publish this, I'd like to… Original Article: Forum: News/Activism

If Obama wins the vote…

House Democratic leaders are trying to create an aura of inevitability about their ability to pass health care. Yesterday, they trotted out two members, Rep. Bart Gordon of Tennessee and Betsy Markey of Colorado, who said they are switching their votes to favor the bill after voting “no” on the first version last November. They join Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich, who announced he would switch from “no” to “yes.” But largely lost in the coverage is the fact that Democrats also have to worry about more than 40 members who voted in favor of health care four months ago but… Original Article: Forum: News/Activism

IMDB only has Sarandon, Phillippe, Bruce Dern and our very own Jason Alan Smith from Do Not Disturb listed as the attached cast, but in Phillippe’s latest interview he revealed that there’s more people involved… According to Phillippe, “I think I’m doing a Western in May, with Susan Sarandon, Billy Bob Thornton, Richard Dreyfuss [and] Bruce Dern,” he said. “It’s called The Big Valley, which was a [television] series in the ’60s, and so it’s sort of based on that.” Original Article: Forum: News/Activism

Editor's note: The following is excerpted from an article with the same headline by Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Friedman that was published in the Wall Street Journal on April 17, 1996. Friedman died in 2006. A related editorial appears nearby: In a chapter in his novel “The Cancer Ward” titled “The Old Doctor,” Alexander Solzhenitsyn compares “private medical practice” with “universal, free, public health service” through the words of an elderly physician whose practice predated 1918. . . Mr. Solzhenitsyn himself had no personal experience on which to base his account and yet, in what I have long regarded… Original Article: Forum: News/Activism
