Freedom for a nation to choose what to do with its money, just like corporations and people are free to choose. How can you insist that for a nation to *choose *to provide health care to all of its citizens is taking away freedom? Is freedom threatened by the nation choosing to provide highways, police, fire, education and so forth to everyone? Are those services bad because they are run by government? Where's the consistency in this argument? Freedom to choose is still freedom to choose when everyone makes the choice by democratic means. That's our nation's very definition of freedom. Nick
