The one part forcing people to buy insurance should be enough. It would be nice if they find more sections and push for a fasttrack to SCOTUS to gut this thing.

The one part forcing people to buy insurance should be enough.

Absolutely.

If not, then basically the Constitution puts no limits to federal power, which is certainly not true.

[Wooly]

The mandate is one. The fact that the IRS is now going to be used outside of it's original power could be another one. Sharing of income and other personal data is one. Regulating Doctors and health care providers to the point that hey are pseudo federal employees that did not get anything from the federal government is basically stealing intellectual property or indentured servitude. Even the idea of taxing for the purpose of providing a service without providing that service for a number of years is probably a point that could be argued.
This bill will not be in force for quite a while to come. It is my belief that Obama knows it has a high possibility of being declared unconstitutional and that was why he dressed down the Supreme Court Justices during the State of the Union. This way he can say that the Court robbed the left of health care. It is a way to save his own elected skin in 2012 even though he will have shot all the other democrats in the back

You have go to think endgame. These guys are smart and constantly outwit the Republicans. They know the mandate is unconstitutional. They don't care. They know healthy people will pay the fine which is around 1/10th the cost of buying a health insurance policy and bankrupt the system. They want people to get used to it and have it run out of money.

Think VAT. That is what they want. That is the holy grail of liberal socialist progressives. They think they can get it through to fund health-care when it, inevitably, founders. And after that there will be no constraints whatsoever on the size and growth of government. If Obama pulls that off the socialists will be lighting candles and praying in front of his picture for a thousand years.
