Obamacare Outrage

I like this sign and post at Instapundit, as well as his link to the real reason we hate universal health care. I agree 100% with the article, which I read last year, especially this:
"I’m perfectly willing to provide subsidized health care to people who are suffering due to no fault of their own. But in those cases — which, unfortunately, constitute perhaps a majority of all cases — where the unwellness is a consequence of the patient’s own misdeeds, bad habits, or stupid choices, I feel a deep-seated resentment that the rest of us should pick up the tab to fix medical problems that never should have happened in the first place. I’m speaking specifically of medical problems caused by: • Obesity • Cigarette smoking • Alcohol abuse • Reckless behavior • Criminal activity • Unprotected promiscuous sex • Use of illicit drugs • Cultural traditions • Bad diets"
And Michael Goodwin explains why we fear Obama's big government: "The people haven't lost faith in government. They just don't think bigger is better. And the bigger he wants to make it, the less faith they have in him."
