In a civilized society, should anyone or any government ever force anyone to do anything against his or her will as long as that person does not infringe upon the life, liberty, or property of another?

The Land of Oz

Remember when Dorothy finally reached the Emerald City to see the great Wizard of Oz? Her and her pals were cleaned up and pampered for free while the citizens sang a song about how each citizen slept late and took a long lunch, then kicked off at three.

After watching the Democratic debate tonight, I realized that's where the Democrats want to take you - to Oz. They discussed spending billions on "free" college tuition, billions on "free" early programs for little ones, billions on "free" universal health care, and on, and on. Unfortunately, we don't live in Oz and someone will have to pay for all of this. Yes, you and me. So get out your wallets and purses. Have them ready if a Democrat wins the White House next year. But then again, this is business as usual for government - it's not a horse of a different color.

The sad thing is... way too many eat up that horse shit of "free" _____. Too bad being a politician isn't about telling people the REALITY of all this crap they cheer and clap for.
