(CNSNews.com) House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday that Obamacare facilitates the type of liberation that the Founders had in mind because it allows you to leave your job and become a photographer, a writer, a musician -- or whatever.
As you hear from these stories, this is a liberation, Pelosi said at a Capitol Hill news conference Thursday.
This is what our founders had in mind -- ever expanding opportunity for people.
You want to be a photographer or a writer or a musician, whatever -- an artist, you want to be self-employed, if you want to start a business, you want to change jobs, you no longer are prohibited from doing that because you cant have access to health care, especially because you do not want to put your family at risk, she said.

Gone Galt yet?
A perfect example of why...
Legislatures (state and federal) can be part-time jobs with NO perks, NO retirement, NO medical, NO insider-trading, NO dental, NO privileges, NO staff and 1/10th the current pay. These POS politicians can get a job and do something productive not progressive.
They cannot denounce their own...clean their own house. What’s left?
“That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.”
Alter it.
And in the land of unintended consequences, what often goes unmentioned is that the NUMBER ONE reason physicians between the age of 55-65 continue to work is, ironically, to get health care benefits. So, when al these seasoned Docs have their health care ‘guaranteed’ it will be interesting to see how many retire.
Good point. Unintended consequences BUMP!
A Politician can stand in front of adoring Journalists and make insipid remarks that in a sane world would get a chuckle from a Grandmother listening to her five year old Grandson telling her what he wanted to be when he grew up.
Are people really this stupid, really?
A bum.
We can be among the 50 million Americans on food stamps.
