On the 1st of June, our Dear Leader's solicitor general, Neal Kumar Katyal, defended Obamacare in a federal appeals court. (By the way, I've never heard of the title 'solicitor general' until now). At some point during the procedings he had this to say about the folks not wanting to see their health insurance premiums skyrocket because of any increase in earnings: "If you don't like the mandate, earn less money."
This is what a coworker of mine calls getting punished for being successful. I think this is on par with Marie Antoinette's "let them eat cake" comment.
The Washington Examiner has the complete story:
