Whole Foods CEO: Obamacare-Fascism Comparison Won't Hurt Profits 

Unfortunately, Obamacare DOES bear some resemblance to fascism.  From the article:

“I cannot conceive how a CEO of a health food grocery chain that promotes wellness would suggest that any person should be denied access to health care,” she said.
Some people quoted in this article don't seem to get that they are doing the same thing that they are so righteously indignant about the CEO doing.  The CEO used, perhaps, the wrong term to describe Obamacare, but now these same whiners are also claiming that people are either pro-Obamacare, or they are against access to healthcare for everyone.  Grow up, people.  If you're going to complain about someone else's language, then choose your own words more carefully.
