From Jay Nordlinger’s Impromptus column  at NRO:

Speaking at our event was Arlene Wohlgemuth, a former Texas state legislator who is now a senior fellow at TPPF [the Texas Public Policy Foundation], and a health-care expert — very expert. She spoke on the subject with complete persuasiveness, saying that the ObamaCare debate is not really, fundamentally, about health care: It is about the nature of society. The goals of increased access and decreased costs can be met — but Obama’s vision of a new kind of society, with a new relationship between the citizen and the state, is something else. She says that, if ObamaCare becomes law — becomes the new American Way — that will represent a serious, serious loss of freedom. And she explains why, with a chilling clarity.
