This Is It: The Absolute Dumbest Blog Comment About Healthcare Reform

I've read some borderline-insane word salads against the healthcare reform bill, but this is the internet. That shit doesn't faze me anymore. But this comment is special, because I cannot for the life of me understand how a person intelligent enough to string these words together could look at what he had written and not feel profoundly ashamed of himself.

It comes from, of all places, the not-normally-political Lifehacker:

Forget about the "healthcare bill". Everyone please take a look at the process that passed it. Does any of this smell like a dictatorship to you? Consider that if you did not like "Bush's War" you did not have to participate in it. But now I am compelled to buy an insurance product? What next? Poor folks can't buy cars so now we ALL have to buy cars?

I don't even know where to begin. I must have missed the option in TurboTax to get back the portion of my taxes they spent on the war.

Just so we're clear:

Imperialist military adventures? -- NOT A DICTATORSHIP

Trying to get more people insured? -- BASICALLY HITLER

And I don't understand at all the point he's trying to make with the car thing.

But I don't want to be treated or cared for if I have no health insurance options! I'd rather die than support THAT ONE and his totally NAZI idea of considering the health of others!!! FREEDOM ISN'T FREE.r
