In this week’s Freeman column, Sheldon Richman sorts through the bogus arguments that have been made about the Obamacare mandate regarding contraception. Philosophically clueless writers such as WaPo’s E. J. Dionne, say that this is a clash of rights which the federal government must resolve. Richman shows that argument to be rubbish. The only clash here is between freedom and coercion. Obama and his minions aren’t the least bit concerned about the former. They want government control, which requires the latter.
