Is not one of tenants of conservatism the idea of personal responsibility for your actions? Yes, Obama lied, but personal choices have consequences.

Since I don’t smoke the point is Obama lied about healthcare. If Obama said smokers will pay 25% of income for Obamacare it would have NEVER passed. What else is buried in the paperwork that will effect us.

We have transitioned health insurance from a transfer of risk, to a collectivist system. It is not possible to have individual responsibility in a collective system, which is shown by your cry for individual responsibility by dictating collective behaviour.

Someone just said as much, “Individual liberty requires collective action.”

Doubleplus ungood.
