Obama has the push on for the independence from oil.Hence, that energy policy is, and will, drive gas prices up, to the point that the Volt will be the only auto option affordable to drive.Obamacare stresses going from a sickness healthcare, to a wellness healthcare. Hence the health system forceing the individual to an overly healthy diet, or the premiums would be higher. Also, forced exercise.A health system here in Ohio already stated this as part of Obamacare.
You sure are pulling overestimated numbers out of your nether regions in a truly typical partisan fashion. Please provide the basis for your “trillion dollar bailouts.”And although $527 Million was wasted on Solyndra, that’s nothing compared to the amount used to subsidize big oil companies, farmers, loggers, ranchers, Boeing, and lots of other pet projects of the republicans.
Right. If Obamacare is found to be Constitutional (which it is NOT), then what’s to stop the government from mandating that we do everything in this cartoon and more? Apparently, to liberal lawmakers, we’re too stupid to take care of ourselves, but we’re “smart” enough to elect them???
The fuss about the “individual mandate” is a prime example of the hyper-partisanship of republicans, and a kind of hypocrisy that verges on insanity.The “individual mandate” was originally proposed and supported by republicans, and was used to counter the universal health care plan of Clinton. -————————————————————————————————-

The Volt was planned, designed, and marketed under Bush. Why do cons keep blaming Obama for it? Oh, yeah. Dumb question.
