Marie Watters Colton, writing an opinion piece in the Asheville Citizen Times, really, really, really dislikes freedom. She writes an entire article devoted to explaining why government can spend money better than individuals. She complains and describes why any government spending is good and that anyone who dares oppose MORE spending (for any reason) is evil. Marie Watters Colton is a clear communist, an enemy of freedom and America.

Here's some of the areas that she supports more, more, and MORE government spending:

Education. She likes that education is funded at the highest level in history. Of course, the fact that children are not BEING educated does not matter in the least. What's important is that the education system is spending money. Results have nothing to do with spending. If they spend MORE, they actually claim to be successful.

Job Creation. She is happy when government creates jobs. In her mind, that is a purpose of government. In a free society, government creates ZERO jobs, but instead ensures the climate for job creation is free.

Health Care. She is happy that government is spending MORE to provide health care for "uninsurable" people. That means that those of us who do good things with our health and care for our bodies are forced at gunpoint to pay for the healthcare of those who do not.

Mental Health. More spending, more giveaways, more freebies -- at the expense of the taxpayer, of course. Private businesses always used to do this function, why is only government qualified to do it now?

Children's Health. Piles and piles of cash giveaways here. After all, it's for the children, so if you oppose spending hundreds of millions, you're evil. Once again, the fact that the taxpayer must pay for other people's bad decisions, against their will, never seems to matter to these anti-freedom people.

Increased Teacher Pay. What a deal. Do nothing and get more money. Don't increase output, get more cash. Show up for work and get a giant raise. Once again, the concept of results is foreign to these people. Just spend more money on teachers because it's a nice thing to do -- at least to buy the votes of teachers, anyway.

5.5% raise for State Employees. And again -- zero increase in output, huge pay increase. How many people do you know who got a 5.5% pay increase and had to do absolutely nothing extra to get it? It's called vote buying, nothing more.

Folks, this is today's Democrat Party. They celebrate anything that results in less freedom and more government. Once again, if you hate earning your own money, please vote Democrat.
