Sen. Rand Paul's analogy of free health care being akin to slavery gets to the core of the "government is the solution" vs "government is the problem" argument. While Paul's example doesn't completely connect the dots, Tom Mullen's blot post brings the argument full circle. When the use of aggressive force (whether for laudable ends or not) violates another person's natural right to liberty or voluntarily acquired property, it is bullying. It is also, to a varying degree, a form of slavery.
