Forcing purchase is slavery, not freedom

| April 6, 2014 7:00 AM

To force people to buy a product against their will is not freedom, but slavery.

Our system of government was based upon checks and balances, and it is time for the people to exercise theirs. No one can claim our right to buy or not to buy, whatever name they use, be it federal or state legislature, court, police, president, or potentate can lawfully force you to buy some product.
