Dr. Ben Carson: Obamacare The Worst Thing That Has Happened Since Slavery

Quote:Obamacare is really, I think, the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery,” Carson declared. “It is slavery in a way because it is making all of us subservient to the government.” Carson said the implementation of the Affordable Care Act was never about health care, only control. “That’s why when this administration took office it didn’t matter that the country was going off the cliff economically. All forces were directed toward getting this legislation passed,” Carson said. Carson also made a comparison between Obama’s health care law to former Soviet leader Vladimir Lenin. “Vladimir Lenin, one of the fathers of socialism and communism, said that socialized medicine is the keystone to the establishment of a socialist state,” Carson stated.

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...
Quote:Stewart pointed out the absurdity of saying the effort to get people affordable healthcare is worse than not just American laws like Jim Crow and slavery, but the Nuremberg Laws and the medieval law that said hte king got to sleep with your bride on your wedding night.
Quote:Carson, who is a contributor to Fox News, assailed president Obama’s health care law, saying it is akin to slavery. No stranger to controversy, Carson earlier this year apologized to John Hopkins University, where he is a physician, for comparing homosexuality to bestiality and pedophilia during an appearance on Fox News. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2013/10/ben-carson-obamacare-is-slavery/

Quote: A law about healthcare is as bad as the actual historical fact of slavery? And signing up to that ridiculous comparison is supposed to be smart? And here I thought smart people have a sense of proportion.

Quote:Originally posted by AURaptor: *sigh* Sorry Yoda, I'm just gonna try on this one... This 'law about healthcare' is less about health and more about control. Control over one's life, by the Imperial Federal Govt. Which also condoned slavery. It's an apt analogy. Let big 'Massah' Gub-ment take care ya, ( housing - *food - healthcare - job ... ) and all we have to do is keep votin' Democrat. Hell, beat's pickin' cotton out in the fields, after all.

It's the most amazing melt-down I've ever seen here, and it's incomprehensibly pitiful.
Quote:I clearly wrote "every time Republicans have called Democrats...", was challenged to show an example, and showed numerous examples of authoritative figures lauded by those here on the right doing exactly that.

Quote:Originally posted by AgentRouka: Right. Regulating some aspects of health insurance so that an increased number of people can have affordable access to it is the same as human beings literally considered livestock by the people who personally (privately!) owned them. Apt is no the word I would use.
