So next year, when Obama mandates we all buy a Chevy Volt, what then?

The government is our master. We The People are powerless before it.

The Constitution means nothing. Limited government? Fuggedaboudit.

Someone needs to dig up Thomas Jefferson and have him beat Chief Justice Roberts over the head with the Declaration of Independence. Repeatedly.

Not that it would do any good. The damage is done.

The Obamacare abomination survives. Every American is compelled by the force of law to purchase health insurance. Because the individual mandate is in actuality a tax.

Welcome to the United States of Greece. Where our Socialist Overlords have big plans for us serfs. It's been said that the power to tax is the power to destroy.

Liberty was destroyed today. We'll probably never get it back.

The more I think about it, the madder I get.

Even if Obamacare gets repealed a terrible precedent has been set. Congress can tax our behavior. Get too fat? Pay the Obesity Tax. Don't buy that Chevy Volt? Pay the Fossil Fuel Waster Tax. Homeschool your kids? Pay the Support Your Local Teachers Union Tax.

Nanny-state busybodies like Mike Bloomberg are having an orgasm right now.

There's only one way out of this mess. Secession. Start over. Create a New America from the ashes of the old.

We all pick a state. Say, Arizona. They're pissed at Obama already, and more than ready to assert their God-given right to sovereignty. Let's all move there and re-establish America as it was intended by the Founding Fathers.

No liberals allowed. You'll have to pass a test on the Federalist Papers to get in. And sign your name onto the Declaration of Independence V2.0 (which will, of course, bear a striking resemblance to the original).

I'm just thinking out loud here. So feel free to improve on my idea.

Linked at The Daley Gator, where they're angry too.
