Apparently States can't recall them because they're federal employees
.
The conservative replacement is the free market. Fedgov involvement of any kind only makes medical care worse.
Primary time!
I wouldn’t bet the house on it.
Just repeal. Let’s restore the way things were before Obamacare.
And America would be better off w/o those 3 states BY FAR! Throw in (away) kalif while you’re at it.
You mean Reid won't graciously follow McConnell's example as minority leader and vote FOR cloture and AGAINST the final bill?
Doesn't Reid understand that he's in the minority of only one-third of one-half of the federal government, and therefore powerless?

That won't happen. That's my point. It took several years and millions of $$$$ to prepare for the brave new world. It won't go back overnight, and there WILL be a vacuum created when it goes away. Given time, various entities and organizations would step in to fill the void, however, it won't happen soon enough. Instead, the FedGov will step in with the perfect solution: single payer. Again, that has been the goal all along. Watch.
House RINOs are unsurprisingly still wrongly ignoring that the states have never delegated to the corrupt feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for intrastate healthcare purposes.
Paul v. Virginia, 1869
The Paul v. Virginia opinion contains the following statement.
"4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract of indemnity against loss."
Noting that Obama’s activist justices completely “overlooked” Paul v. Virginia in the Obamacare opinion, it has been pointed out concerning the excerpt above that the Supremes had essentially clarified that the Constitution’s Commerce Clause (1.8.3) doesn’t give the feds the power to regulate insurance. So I’m adding the excerpt from Paul v. Virginia to the list of excerpts from Supreme Court case opinions which indicate that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for intrastate healthcare purposes.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress. [emphases added]” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
“Inspection laws, quarantine laws, health laws of every description [emphasis added], as well as laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c., are component parts of this mass.” —Justice Barbour, New York v. Miln., 1837.
”4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce [emphasis added] within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract of indemnity against loss.” — Paul v. Virginia, 1869. (The corrupt feds have no Commerce Clause (1.8.3) power to regulate insurance.)
“Direct control of medical practice in the states is obviously [emphases added] beyond the power of Congress.” –Linder v. United States, 1925.
