Is it just me, or does this country drift towards dictatorship when the Executive Branch can determine (via waivers in this case) which states and companies get punished by Obamacare (or any other program).
It seems that if laws are passed by Congress, they should either apply to EVERYONE, or no one.
You’re right, of course. But we no longer live in that America.
Obama, the democrats, unions and Obama TV make the laws however they want. All of TV supports him and idiots who watch TV empower him.
14th Amendment equal protection clause; I believe that
prohibits these shenanigans.
So much for Zer0 the constitutional law teacher.
As Sonny Corleone said to brother Michael,”did you go to college to become stupid?”
Remember back when President Bush told us that he didn't have to follow or enforce the law, and with all the talk about "unitary executive theory," many FReepers cheered the idea and flamed those who warned, "But what about when Hillary's in power?"
Oh, those heady days, when Democrats could never get power again, according to many.
Now, here we are, reaping what has been sown for so long. And President Obama is worse than Hillary Clinton.
Bingo! Bingo! Bingo! Bingo! Bingo!
No, you are NOT the only one wondering about it.
Waivers are CORRUPTION. They are not just violations of the constitution, but SIMPLE CORRUPTION. Communist style.
It's the Chicago way. Remember how Governor Blago would say he wasn't giving up xyz favor for NOTHING? Every Obama waiver is a direct quid pro quo for favors or contributions.
