Wow! Thanks to The War Planner for directing our attention to this video:
Unfortunately, even some people who should know better are dismissing the assertion that redistribution of wealth by force is an affront to self-ownership tantamount to the threat of enslavement. Here's an elementary tutorial for those folks...
Self-Ownership and The Philosophy of Liberty
Update:
As usual, Ed Morrissey nails it:
"A few points should be noted. While the woman argues effectively about the 13th Amendment bar on slavery, the Fifth Amendment protection against confiscation of private property also applies, as does the Article I, Section 8 mandate on Congress to protect the ownership of “exclusive right to their Writings and Discoveries” for those in the sciences and the arts. Also, take a look at Stark’s body language in this exchange. Normally combative (and aggressively insipid in most cases), Stark seems to be collapsing in on himself as the woman builds an argument effectively enough to win applause from her fellow constituents."
Update II:
Proof provides a link to the website of Stark's opponent, Forest Baker: http://www.forestbakerforcongress.com/
Where's the Tip Jar??
Update III:
Here's some good information from Michelle Malkin...
"Chris Pareja is the independent Tea Party candidate running against Stark. He’s a father and small business owner with solid grass-roots support and a limited-government agenda. Learn more about him here and help out his campaign."
Perhaps Chris would be a good TBF nominee...
I'll have to add a clip from the new Fortney Stark video to this video:

Perfect post, Right Klik. Especially the last montage of 'Foot In the Mouth' Democrat Talking Points.
Stark is an elitist that does not see himself as a servant to the people but instead as a ruler. How this man continues to get reelected every two years in beyond me. Great post RK
