NUKE THE UTTERLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND UTTERLY WASTEFUL $1 TRILLION HHS!!!!!

The Constitution gives the feds NO authority in health or human services. Health and human services are areas for individual choice in the free market economy (preferable) or state issues if the people of the state so choose. The HHS is by definition tyranny and must be abolished.

The best pick will be the one that eventually works himself out of a job dissolving the unconstitutional HHS.

Trump and Price have a big job---to find all of the graft and corruption in Obamacare.

The Democrats nationalized 1/6th of the US Economy into a Democrat Cash Cow. E-v-e-r-y conniving Democrat voted for O/Care---parroting Obama's Big Lie "If you like your plan, keep your plan.

ALL the untraceable O/Care money from enrollments, fines, penalties, taxes, fees, and asset confiscation (from Medicaid users) goes to your "reliable, trustworthy government."

==============================================

Some observers note that the Democrat-controlled Senate passed Obamacare "after a series of unsavory transactions that purchased the aye votes of several shrewdly extortionate Democrats"....with a huge pile of money still unaccounted for.

The most unsavory was Landrieu's $4.3 billion "Louisisana Purchase."

THE PAPER TRAIL IS HUGE Sen Landrieu (recently lost her reelection bid) sold her aye vote in what Forbes Magazine dubbed "The 'Louisiana Purchase" that included a massive $4.3 Billion to Landrieu

FORBES REPORTED the Democrats’ nailed Landrieu’s support for Obamacare w/ a greenback bribe. Landrieu, critics believe, pledged her vote in exchange for some $200 million more additional federal funds for Louisiana. Except that, due to a drafting error, the law ended up giving Louisiana $4.3 billion: more than twenty times the assigned amount. MORE HERE http://www.forbes.com/fdc/welcome_mjx.shtml

===============================================

BACKSTORY In the fall of 2009, Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was trying to get the necessary 60 Dimocrat votes to pass the Affordable Care Act. He needed every Dim on board, which gave waffling senators a great deal of leverage. In Landrieu's case, she connivingly saw that selling her aye vote could get her maybe $200 million federal dollars. Obama complied. Reid chalked up another vote for Obamacare----not the measly $200 million but $4.3 billon was attached to the Obamacare bill earmarked for Landrieu.

=================================================

How $4.3 billion to Landrieu was calculatedly attached to the Obamacare bill, and how Obama and Reid failed to catcH and fix it, is yet another indictment of the Obamacare atrocity.

The $4.3 billion handoff to Landrieu should be investigated as an indication of how EVERY Democrat came to vote for Obamacare....and how tax dollars were laundered to get lock-stepping Democrats' votes.

"Obamacare" is a sitting president's blunder of Ceausescu-esque proportions. In Obama's feeble mind, the ACA was not about healthcare.

Far from it.

The conniving Obama calculated the ACA to consolidate Democrat power that was supposed to install a permanent Dumbocrat majority. So much for that ding-dong idea....b/c 30 lockstepping Dumbocrats who voted for it were ousted in the 2014 Democrat Demolition Derby. Several retired knowing they could not be reelected.

====================================================

WHERE IS THE MONEY? O/care also allocated some $6 billion tax dollars----spending money for Dumbocrats ----which has yet to be traced.

The Untraceable $8 Billion ObamaCare PR Budget---truly govt fraud at its finest. Egged on by Pelosi, Democrats slavishly voted for Obamacare by an historic straight-party line vote. But not one Democrat told Americans about Obamacare's Section 4002---which mandates an $8B untraceable fund to "promote" Obamacare (apparently b/c Boobamba had so little confidence in his signature legislation).

THE PAYOFF--WHO GETS THE MONEY? In 2010 Taxpayers are extorted $500 million, in 2011, $750 million, 2012, $1 billion, 2013, $1.25 billion, 2014, $1.5 billion, and, in 2015 and on, $2 billion

<><> Where is all that money going?

<><> Was cashing-in the incentive in getting the thing passed?

The sound of West Wing wire-transfers to states and to offshore banks is almost palpable.

===================================================

And a strong supporter of low wages and poor working conditions.
Like in the sweatshops she owns.
Extremest Pelosi should be a poster girl for Draining The Swamp.

Well, you sound like a POW. So creeping unconstitutional socialism to the point of almost complete tyranny is OK with you? Not me.

There is no power on earth that I know of that can force dismantling the unconstitutional 80%+ portion of the $4 trillion government sending hundreds of thousands of government officials, bureaucrats and workers home packing. And yet that is EXACTLY what needs to happen to recover our Free Constitutional Republic.

There was no way Trump was going to win but he did. The Power behind Trump’s win, the same Power that caused a bunch of scrapping colonists to defeat the most powerful nation on earth, is the same Power than can take down this unconstitutional beast. I think He will.

Dang, man we haven’t ye begun to fight and you’ve given up already? Not good.

No I am not a POW. I am a realist. We have to start where we are

Unless you plan on funding a major court case against the EPA and HHS and any other extra constitutional cabinet position (which will likely lose) then you must start from where we are today

Whatever it takes. How did the revolutionary war against the most powerful nation on earth start?

Among other things, the states need to get off their asses and start NULLIFYING unconstitutional federal acts.

And BTW, courts do not make national law and unconstitutional court decisions are to be rejected. Courts don’t make national law. The Constitution IS national law and ONLY those legislative acts of Congress PURSUANT to the Constitution are national law.

How many “realists” were there in the 1700’s? Did they sit down and say “It can’t be done?” You never win with that. No, they said “Give us liberty or give us death.” We’ve got to get that same ardor and spirit back to beat these quislings and tyrants who will NOT go away unless we make them go away.

“Start where we are” is like saying the sun comes up in the east. There’s no issue about “starting where you are”. The issue is where do you go from here and what needs to get started NOW.
