Brett L. Baker~ “ Obama care is actually a good example of why a living constitution is a bad idea.

In essence, doesn’t that remove State sovereignty? “

Yes , there is the issue of “States Rights” which should supercede the intrusion of the Federal Govt.
Wasn’t there a discussion of States Rights versus the Federal Government about 150 years ago ?
Unfortunately that idea ended when Lee surrendered to Grant at Appomattox.
