Where Were the SOPA Haters During ObamaCare?

I believe the failure of SOPA is that there were too few free items raining toward the masses to garner needed support. The crafters of SOPA seem to have forgotten that it is much easier for the citizenry to trade away liberty when free stuff comes their way in return.

The lack of liberal support for SOPA relative to their generous support for ObamaCare suggests that there wasn't enough of a payoff to cover the liberty lost to win their liberal support.

Being that SOPA is likely to return in some form, I think it wise to consider how much free stuff might be required to turn liberal SOPA hate into something that resembles their ObamaCare love.
