The Proletariat Doesn’t Know What’s Best For Them
Axis of Right ^ | 8/1/2009 | Sal

So Obama’s poll numbers are in freefall, support for his health care plan in the toilet, and opposition to his policies in general are rising. How can this be? Our dear leader’s policies are so important, so critical for reinventing America? Andrea Mitchell of State-Run Media outlet MSDNC, has figured it out! We, the lowly proletariat, oppose the policy because we don’t know what’s best for us.

The dripping condescension of Mitchell in this video for Americans who happen to disagree with her boss on his health care policy is evident in this video, and illustrates what the elites really think of the average voter.

She said:“We just think people will be too focused on saving money and they won’t get the care for their children and themselves that they need. We think the government, by saying, ‘You have to make this schedule. You have to have your kids in for inoculations here, you have to do a pre-screening here, you have to do this’ — the government will make better decisions than the people will make, and people will be healthier because of it.”

I said, “Well, part of that’s an education process. People have to understand that [if] they behave in a certain way, they’re going to save money, [with the] preventive medicine issue — you get the pre-screenings, if you can inoculate your kids you save money on it. I mean, they’re not sick. You save money.”

She said, “No. We just can’t trust the American people to make those types of choices … Government has to make those choices for people.” (David Brock’s The Seduction of Hillary Rodham)
