How Sweet it Ain't

So recently in Chicago (home lunches) and in Boston (sugar drinks) there have been efforts by the local government to cram their universal health doctrines down the throats of their citizens. The backlash was immediate. Perhaps the news would have gone down better with a spoon full of sugar.

It’s awfully sweet of the government to look after our best interest. After all, monitoring our diet goes along with the new “everybody’s gotta have skin in the game” universal healthcare plan that has more holes in it than a dozen glazed doughnuts. The democrats hope that if you deliver Obamacare with a nice message, maybe no one will realize the damage it will create. Sweet and low.

With each and every step along the Reeses Pieces trail that is Obamacare, we realize that in the end there is no happy ending, just a big stomach ache. What would once have been unnecessary government intrusions, are now accepted as necessary evils in the rocky road to utopia. I mean hey, if I’m gonna pay for your healthcare, then you have to respect my wallet by watching your weight. We’ll call it Kit for Kat.
