Hillary seems to be channeling John Edwards on this one.

Back in September, he wanted to require preventive care whether you want it or not, and now she has come out saying she would support garnishing your wages and making enrollment mandatory.

Apparently, Socialism is not an option…

Clinton health plan may mean tapping pay

Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday she might be willing to garnish the wages of workers who refuse to buy health insurance to achieve coverage for all Americans.

The New York senator has criticized presidential rival Barack Obama for pushing a health plan that would not require universal coverage. Clinton has not always specified the enforcement measures she would embrace, but when pressed on ABC’’s “This Week,” she said: “I think there are a number of mechanisms” that are possible, including “going after people’s wages, automatic enrollment.”

Clinton said such measures would apply only to workers who can afford health coverage but refuse to buy it, which puts undue pressure on hospitals and emergency rooms. With her proposals for subsidies, she said, “it will be affordable for everyone.”

She will certainly not win any happy followers on the right with that one, but even some on the left are chafing:

Hillary’s Garnish Talk: Has She Finally Cooked Her Own Goose?

Hang around US politics long enough, and you swear you see everything. Right here on this very forum as of late, I have seen Hillary Clinton’s supporters, now driven into a losing momentum frenzy by the closeness of the race, devolve to spewing hate at MoveOn.org, DailyKos, Ted Kennedy, Oprah, and hundreds of others who had the audacity to support her opponent. I’ve even seen racist commentary when Stevie Wonder stepped up as an Obama fan. But, you rarely see a candidate put their foot in their mouth so theatrically, and right before a Super Tuesday, like Senator Clinton has in regards of her intention to garnish peoples’ wages if they don’t buy into her health plan.
