Obamacare forces people who earn more, to hand resources to people who earn less. The excuse is that they need it for health insurance. Is "robbing Peter to pay Paul" this way, something government should EVER engage in?
Is this a better idea than using the same amount of effort to persuade people to give voluntarily, by setting up charitable organizations, having funds drives and marathons etc.? It's an effort that has never been pushed as hard as the push for "robbing Peter to pay Paul". Especially considering that forcing people to give you things, is theft... and when officially sanctioned by government, becomes a direct violation of the rights government is supposed to safeguard?
Is this theft and violation of fundamental rights by the U.S. Government, a "better idea" than the alternatives they've never really tried?
