So, the 10th Amendment allows RomneyCare and it’s “fees”, which are paid to the MA DOR (and yes, I have been fined/taxed/whatever one wants to call it).

So basically, Gloves argument is: Rom-bamaCare on a national level is bad; on a state level is good.

I can tell you all, on a state level it SUCKS!

Even Scalia has stated in a number of opinions, whether they were Per Curiam or dissent, that some laws are constitutional even though they are dumb.

For example mandatory seat belt laws. It appears that no one is bothered by the blatant assault on the individual privacy such as these - although people should wear them I think these laws are a violation of civil liberities..

But the states have the right to impose these laws even though there is no power for the federal govt to require this. Manditory liability insurance is another example at the state level as requirement for driving a car.

I love Scalia, but I am still waiting for someone to justify his concurrence in South Dakota v Dole.

I'm not surprised. And on a national level, it would be infinitely worse.

RE :”I can tell you all, on a state level Romney-care SUCKS! “

This is exactly why Romney is such a bad candidate to have now. He can't admit it, but he must admit it at the same time he cant.

My gal unelectable Bachmann would be calling Obama-care a dark curse on this nation about now pointing out how it chases jobs to China and Mexico. And she could say that Romney-care sucks too.
