...because what I thought I heard has such broad application.
What I heard yesterday as one of the arguments to uphold the healthcare law was that those who don't participate in purchasing healthcare make the costs greater for those who do...and that is an undue burden on those participants.
Couldn't I say that is also true for those who don't choose to purchase raspberries? Really -- it causes us a burden when the price goes way down because the market is soft. So, we plant fewer raspberries, and then people want them more, and they become costly because there aren't enough of them to go around...and that causes a burden on everyone.
If everyone was required to buy some raspberries every year, wouldn't that be more fair?
I'm not sure how they're going to handle shipping raspberries to places that don't have them. Neither do I know what they're going to do about the people who don't like raspberries...or think they don't need them...
They'll come up with some regulations to handle that, and after they pass that bill we'll find out what's in it.
And we'll all live happily ever after, because life will finally be fair...well, except for people who don't like raspberries.
But obviously, they don't know what's good for them anyway.
