Democracy?

It's 2014 (the year really doesn't matter) and there is a law in place requiring you to purchase health insurance through federal and state programs. If you don't; you face fines and possible forfeiture of personal property.

There apparently is a law (whose enactment a lot of us must have slept through) that is slowly banning the production and sale of incandescent bulbs. 75 and 100 watt bulbs have already bit the dust and now the 40 and 60 watt bulbs have joined them.

 

Finally, from what I understand, Hillary Clinton is both a viable and leading candidate for president. The Republicans have no idea who is running.

 

Pardon me as I am conducting a reality check.
