Apparently so, it is a little tough to hear Pelosi, on the video, but it is well worth the effort!
Hot Air has the transcript
Stone: Do you think it’s fair to send people to jail who don’t buy health insurance?
Pelosi: … The legislation is very fair in this respect.
Ed Morrissey has a chilling fact we all must heed!
If nothing else, it reminds us that statism always comes with handcuffs, and those cuffs always get explained by either fairness or patriotism. In this case, Pelosi uses both.
George Moreno has a great question for the Speaker
Will we get health care in Prison, Nancy?
Ace has some great thoughts
Think about this.
The left says: You are crazy to claim your so-called freedoms are being taken away, and you are a lunatic to scream about an overly powerful state which will use violent coercion (no one goes to jail without the threat of violence if he doesn’t, after all) to enforce its notions of the “economic good.”
And with the next breath the left says: By the way, you shall either buy health care insurance or we will throw you in prison for two or three years.
I’m paranoid? Really? I am not fretting here about some remote and unlikely possibility. We are not speaking here of “slippery slopes” or in terms of “what comes next?”
We are instead objecting to a black-letter law spelled out for all to see in the very first piece of legislation you’re proposing.
Pelosi and her vile ilk of Marxist fools have already shown that they care not what our Constitution says. They care nothing about the will of the people either. They see a chance to shove their evil ideology, yes, I said evil, down America’s throat, and they will stop at nothing to finish their ghastly endeavors.
They have shown their true agenda. They mean to dictate to us all how we MUST live, or else! We will accept their “approved” health care plan, don’t worry that you have no idea exactly what that “approved” plan will entail. They, your would be masters will tell you AFTER they mandate that you MUST have it!
