I have a big issue with mandatory health insurance myself - in principle, it is the notion that the government can dictate our choices and grab another handful of our income. It would be another enforced limitation of freedom.

NAFTA was also mentioned...I am old enough to remember well the issues of the time, and one of my great disappointments with the Clinton administration was its support for NAFTA, and international economic policies in general. If HRC wishes to distance herself from it now, that is wonderful, but the history is far too recent and well documented to credibly deny prior energetic support.
