Every socialist ever spawned comes to the inevitable conclusion that there can be no escape, because people who are offered freedom tend to prefer it, and will even die to attain it. This particular individual is another sad demonstration of why you generally only find Marxist economists on campus - everywhere else, they're fired when their theories fail.

The current critique from the Left of America's health care system is that "only" the wealthy get the highest quality care, which is demonstrably untrue but that never stopped a Leftist from shouting it anyway. The system they're proposing to address this "economic injustice" will cost everyone more, lower the quality of care overall, place a great deal of power in the hands of those who ration it, and make the very highest quality of care available only to privileged classes, which tend to be - well, what do you know? - the wealthy. And loyal party members.

It's socialism when you can opt out, Communism when it's mandatory. And this commentator wants it to be mandatory.

So everyone understands what time it is:

It's socialism when you can opt out, Communism when it's mandatory.

Well stated Bill.
