But aren't they forcing their rights on people who would rather they didn't?

Obviously.   See the thread about Sen. Fisher's "maiden speech" and read her speech.  She outlines the problem beautifully.  Here's a piece:

Quote
No single issue is more important to our future than the federal government’s addiction to spending.

“There are two main problems with government spending.

“First, runaway spending has failed to generate economic growth. Since 2009, the federal government has spent roughly $15 trillion. This spending spree includes $830 billion in stimulus spending, which was sold as ‘help for the private sector.’ Instead, the so-called ‘investment’ focused on growing the government.

“The result of this increased government spending has been a largely jobless economic recovery, record numbers of Americans stuck in poverty, and a spiraling national debt. Rather than empowering individuals to improve their lives, these bad economic policies have held Americans back.

I see I am going to have to literally start putting the sarcasm tags around stuff like this when I post it.

I agree with 00Buck... what a wacky Senate Baker's Dozen!  Bet they enjoy water-boarding liberties on the folks.   8)
