Thanks to this thing called democracy, any of us could be a tyrant if we decided to work hard enough for other people's votes of confidence. So that got me to thinking, if Obama can force every adult in America to buy health insurance, wouldn't it be great if I could simply force everyone to buy a bottle of my award-winning chili spice mix?
Think about it. I make a couple bucks per sale, so a couple hundred million sales over the course of the year could really do me well. What, you don't like tasty chili seasoning? Well that's just tough; it's the law now.
And hey, it's not like I'd be forcing you to drop thousands and thousands of dollars on health insurance -- at a measly $6.49 a bottle, maybe you'd even thank me for acting so "reasonably."
