This is where the problem with using the term useful idiots. It's all a matter of opinion. Regardless of Jonathan Gruber's opinion, I'd vote for Obamacare again. According to you, that would make me a useful idiot. I'm not quite sure how to define "idiot", but I generally score in the 137 range on IQ tests, so I wouldn't qualify on that basis.
To review my stance on the 8 levels of control, refer to my alternate post and that's how I see things.
