That is the subject of Sheldon Richman’s column today. In short, the problems that the so-called Affordable Care Act sought to solve can only be made worse because the instrument chosen — federal coercion — is unsuited to the task. No matter whether the intentions of the “architects” of Obamacare were good or bad, good intentions do not ensure good results.

Maybe this is the great “teachable moment” in America when great numbers of people who have always bought into the notion that they must support politicians who claim to have good intentions realize that doing so is a disastrous mistake.
