The WSJ discusses Senator Clinton’s still-burning desire to jam government-run health care down America’s throat. She claims to have learned a lesson from her 1994 defeat. Unfortunately, her learning has nothing to do with the folly of socialized medicine:
The lesson she seems to have learned is political, not substantive–that is, make any plans for government control gauzy and incremental, not grandiose.
In other words, she now knows that she has to use deceptive marketing. She does not, however, plan to permit such subterfuge on the part of private enterprise:
[Clinton] promises to crack down on the “marketing and schemes” of the insurance industry.
Hillary’s hostility to the private sector is not limited to the insurance industry, however. Health care is just one chapter in what Rich Lowry calls:
Her narrative of an economy needing wide-ranging government intervention to escape the nefarious consequences of individuals left to act “on their own.”
Make no mistake about it. If this person is elected president, you WILL be absorbed into the collective.
