It is the freedom of the insurance companies to fleece your bank account, for the banks to fleece everyone else. It is freedom for a more educated (or otherwise better), elite class of people, not for YOU. I am so sick of the words liberty and freedom used by PACs in insidious ways to infer as if the people are really free or really have a choice. I know what kind of fredom it is! ...it's the freedom to "Get back to work, slave!"
