“‘There is no such thing as a little freedom,’ said Walter Cronkite. ‘Either you are all free, or you are not free.’ Whether you’re for or against federal efforts to help people buy health insurance, you should know that the reform bill before the Senate would mandate a healthcare system that is definitely ‘not free.’ What most of us know about the Democratic bill is that it requires nearly all Americans to have health insurance. What most of us don’t know is that it requires us to buy a minimum level of insurance approved by the federal government, and forces health plans and providers to share our personal health information with the federal government and other entities.” (11/23/09)
