The whole outrageous bill is blatantly unconstitutional and it will probably be struck down by the conservative 5 in the SCOTUS. The federal government has no constitutional right to dictate to individuals that they must buy health insurance and that they must buy a certain kind of expensive “comprehensive” low-deductable plan that redistributes individual income to other people who get the same plan at a much lower cost. The whole thing is an unconstitutional, un-American outrage and assault on individual liberty and I will fight it for as long as it takes to repeal this monstrosity. The democrat trash in congress who voted for this monstrosity will pay a big price in November for their arrogance and lack of respect for free Americans.
Here’s a template letter for anyone too exhausted after the recent weeks’ events to write your own:
Dear Governor/Attorney General,
We are in complete support of the (your state here) Attorney General taking legal action challenging the constitutionality of the recently enacted federal health care law.
The new law:
Infringes upon Americans’ constitutionally protected individual liberties
Encroaches upon the states’ constitutionally guaranteed sovereignty
Forces states to spend billions of additional dollars on entitlement programs
Imposes an unconstitutional tax
Violates the Tenth Amendment of the United States Constitution.
Thank you for protecting our rights and freedoms.
I’m with you!! I get tired of all the “Federal laws trump state ones” garbage here. NO, they DO NOT!! Not if they are not in an area the FEDS have jurisdiction over - and Health Care does not meet that qualification!!
