President Barack Obama signaled to House Democratic leaders Wednesday that they’ll have to drop their opposition to taxing high-end health insurance plans to pay for health coverage for millions of uninsured Americans.

Put aside the constitutional arguments, the moral arguments, the legal arguments for a minute. It’s not my responsibility to pay for your “health coverage.”

If anybody has the responsibility to pay for your health insurance, it’s you.

Taking money from me against my will for your own selfish benefit is theft. Having the government take money from me against my will for your own selfish benefit is STILL theft.
